Benin pulls out of Togo game
Accra, March 27, Ghanadot/GNA –
Republic of Benin has pulled out of the newly created
African Nations Championship (CHAN) Sport qualifier against
Togo.
Benin cited lack of players for the game that was slated for
the Ohene Djan Stadium in Accra on Sunday, according to
information pieced together by the GNA Sports.
Togo had adopted Ghana’s capital, Accra as her home venue
for Sunday’s duel following their three-match home ban.
The Hawks grouped in Zone West B 7 would have traveled to
Cotonou for the reverse fixture in a fortnight’s time.
The championship is created by CAF to serve as platform for
indigenous players plying their trades in the local leagues
across the African continent.
The competition is scheduled for February 22-March 8 in 2009
in Cote d’Ivoire.
