 |  موضوع: Mauritania withdraw from Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers  الأحد أغسطس 22, 2010 8:01 pm | |
| Africa's governing football body CAF on Sunday announced that Mauritania had withdrawn from the qualifiers for the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations in Gabon and Guinea-Equatorial.
Mauritinia were due to play in Group F of the qualifiers with Burkina Faso, Gambia and Namibia for the qualifiers which are due to begin in September.
The 11 group winners, as well as the second placed-team from the group in which Togo will be playing will qualify for the tournament, as well as the two best runners-up. They join co-hosts Gabon and Equatorial-Guinea at the 16-team finals.
Togo were originally banned from competing in the competition after they pulled out of the 2010 Nations Cup in Angola following a deadly attack on their team bus, but were reinstated after appealing to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
They will now be competing in a five-team group, which comprises Tunisia, Malawi, Botswana and Chad.
Mauritania's withdrawal means that the two best-runners up will be determined by taking into account the matches against the first and third-placed teams in the group | |
