The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced the postponement of next month’s FIFA World Cup African qualifiers.
CAF said their decision is due to the challenges caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, and the need to ensure optimal playing conditions for all participating teams.
The matches have been moved to September.
