Eagles and the nine other qualified countries for the 2022 World Cup final playoffs will focus their attention on Cairo, Egypt’s capital city, today to learn the format for this stage of the competition.

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) is holding its 13th Extraordinary General Assembly in Cairo, Egypt today, and one of the topics on the agenda is the date of the draw for the final African round of the Mundial in Qatar, as well as the format of the playoffs.

The playoffs for the top ten finishers in each group were originally scheduled for March 2022 on the international match calendar.

However, following FIFA’s decision to change the intercontinental playoff between European and South American teams to a single match in one venue due to scheduling conflicts on both continents and the long distances involved, speculations were rife that CAF would follow suit and hold the playoff as a single match day in Qatar next year.

Teams from West and Central Africa are expected to reject the proposal because it will benefit only four North African countries.

Because they are Arabs, they will feel more at ease playing against non-Arab teams, which could lead to four of the five African teams emerging from North Africa.

Only Egypt, as one of the top five seeded teams, has a chance to play a North African team. Tunisia, Morocco, and Algeria, as well as Senegal and Nigeria, have already been seeded.
