Qatar denies hosting CAF 2015, Nigeria decline, who go say Yes?
« on: November 13, 2014, 03:55:05 PM »
The Gulf state of Qatar refuted Wednesday reports that it offered to host the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations after Morocco was stripped of the right to stage the tournament.

"It is illogical," said Saud al-Muhannadi, vice president of the Qatar Football Association, referring to reports that surfaced in French press.

"The news is false," he told AFP.

French sports newspaper L'Equipe said Wednesday that Qatar, host to the 2022 World Cup, might be the solution if the Confederation of African Football (CAF) fails to find a replacement for Morocco on the continent.
