The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has confirmed that Group C of the CHAN 2022 tournament will proceed with three countries.
This means that the group that has Ghana will be without defending Champions Morocco.
“The Confédération Africaine de Football (“CAF”) Organising Committee for the TotalEnergies African Nations Championship (“CHAN”) Algeria 2022 met today in accordance with the Regulations in Algiers.
“The Committee decided that Group C will be composed of three teams and the first two teams will qualify for the knockout stages,” a statement on the website of CAF said on Monday, January 16.
The statement added, “The Organising Committee has referred the matter of Morocco no show at yesterday’s scheduled fixture against Sudan to the competent judicial body.”
Up next for Ghana, the Black Galaxies will face off with Sudan in the second group game to be played on Thursday, January 19.
The Black Galaxies lost the opening group game against Madagascar on Sunday and cannot afford to miss out on maximum points in the next game.
