Nigeria Set To Face Off Against Ghana In World Cup Play-Offs
Nigeria have landed Ghana in the 2022 Fifa World Cup play-off draw while a mammoth clash between Senegal and Eqypt also awaits.
The draw held on Saturday in Douala was directed by the Confederation of African Football director of competitions Samson Adamu while Senegal football great El Hadji Diouf and former Togo captain Emmanuel Adebayor assisted.
During the ceremony, the 10 group winners from the second round were drawn into five home-and-away ties.
Still fresh from their disappointing Africa Cup of Nations ouster, Ghana would be aiming to appease their fans by earning a fourth World Cup appearance but will be wary coming up against their fellow West Africans who have been very impressive at the ongoing 2021 AFCON in Cameroon.
The Black Stars host the first leg between March 24-29, 2022 while the Teslim Balogun Stadium will stage the second leg in the same month.
Other CAF World Cup qualifying play-off fixtures are
Senegal vs Egypt
Algeria vs Cameroon
DR Congo vs Morocco
Mali vs Tunisia
