Meanwhile, countries suffering Covid outbreaks will have to play their Africa Cup of Nations matches even if they have only 11 players available.

 

 

New guidelines from the Confederation of African Football (CAF) state matches will still go ahead even if none of the 11 players is a goalkeeper.

 

 

Any nation unable to fulfil a fixture will forfeit the game 2-0.

 

 

The guidance has been issued after several nations reported Covid cases before the tournament starts yesterday.

 

 

CAF said that in “exceptional cases” the tournament’s organising committee “will take the appropriate decision”.
