■However, CAFonline claim it's South Africa who have qualified based on Head to Head
FAZ Technical Director Lyson Zulu has confirmed.
According to CAF qualification rules for this tournament, for determination of third best finishers only results against the top two qualified teams in respective groups count.
So even though South Africa 🇿🇦 beat Zambia 🇿🇲 3-2, they failed to beat either Nigeria 🇳🇬 nor Morocco 🇲🇦 who finished in the TOP TWO in the group.
Zambia 🇿🇲 beat Morocco 2-1 and hence QUALIFY!
In the CAF amended rules after South Sudan was ejected for age cheating DOES NOT include Head to Head.
