2022 World Cup play-offs draw moved to January

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) on Friday during their Extraordinary Assembly announced a new date for the 2022 World Cup play-offs draw.

The draw has been moved from 18 December 2021 to January 26, 2022.

According to the decision, the January 2022 rankings will be used to seed the teams for the draw.

The top five ranked teams at the time of the draw will be seeded and paired against the other five unseeded countries.

Algeria, Cameroon, Nigeria, Ghana, DR Congo, Senegal, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt and Mali booked their places after topping their respective groups in the second qualification round.

However, Ghana’s place is not secured due to South Africa FA complaint with Fifa.
