CAF still uncertain over Ghana points in Sierra Leone AFCON qualifier

Published on: 07 November 2018

Ghana are still in the dark over what will happen following their botched 2019 AFCON qualifier against Sierra Leone.

The double header in October was cancelled following a FIFA ban on the Sierra Leone Football Association.

The Caf Executive Committee is yet to decide to completely remove Sierra Leone from the qualifying group which means the Black Stars qualifying group will be left with three teams.

In that case, Ghana won't gain the points but previous matches played by Leone Stars in the group would be declared null and void.

However, if Sierra Leone meets the FIFA conditions and returns to the qualifiers, they will lose the six points against Ghana which will put the Black Stars in commanding control of the group. CAF is yet to clarify whether the points will be awarded to Ghana.
