Comoros petitions CAS over Cameroon expulsion from 2019 Africa Cup of Nations

The Comoros Football Federation has petitioned the Court of Arbitration for Sport to exclude or ban Cameroon from participating in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.

In November, 2018, CAF stripped of the hosting rights of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations from Cameroon following an Executive Council decision in Ghana.

Per the regulations, any country stripped of from hosting a tournament serve a suspension from participating in the same tournament.

But CAF has had no word on that which the Comoros Football Federation think it is unfair and against the regulations.

This is because Comoros have an opportunity to make their first ever appearance in Africa's flagship football tournament if Cameroon are excluded in the final.

Cameroon host Comoros in their last group game in March, 2019 and a win will see the defending champions qualify for the tournament in Egypt.
