The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has approved the Ghanaian Football Association’s request to move the first leg of the Qatar 2022 world cup qualifier between Nigeria and Ghana to the Baba Yara stadium in Kumasi.
The first leg of the Qatar 2022 world cup qualifier was initially slated for the Cape Coast stadium.

However, Ghana’s Independence Day celebrations two weeks ago left the pitch in a deplorable state and some facilities damaged.
The Ghanaian FA has confirmed that the Baba Yara stadium will host the crucial tie with conditions placed by CAF before the approval.
CAF also warned that there will be financial sanctions imposed on Ghana if the conditions are not met.
