And they are facing a $20 million fine for refusing to host the 2015 Cup in its scheduled January 17-February 8 slot over fears of the spread of the deadly Ebola epidemic to the popular tourist destination.
The North African state had called for the Cup to be postponed, but organisers CAF rejected their request, stripping them of their position as hosts and barring them from playing in the continental showcase.
Equatorial Guinea, which co-hosted the 2012 edition with Gabon, were named as Morocco’s replacement as hosts for the troubled 2015 tournament on Friday.
Haaaa...that's too much.....what do you think?
I was thinking maybe, just maybe CAF will postpone the championship. But since it was not done, then Morocco shouldn't have rejected hosting it. I'm sure there will be measures in place to see to it that there will be no ebola case. Well the CAF hammer has landed and it landed hard on them Moroccans.
