“We’re trying to deal with the situation as best we cansaid El Hadad Himidi, who General manager of the team. “But without our coach, without some key players and especially without our two remaining goalkeepers, the situation is very complicated.“
Comoros, third in Group C, narrowly made it through to the knockout rounds, knocking out three-time African champions Ghana in the process. Comoros are supposed to play tournament hosts Cameroon in the round of 16 on Monday.
According to the association, at least eleven players must have had a negative test
The organizers did not initially provide information about the further procedure. The rules of the African governing body CAF basically stipulate that a team must play if at least eleven players have a negative corona test. If a goaltender is not available, an outfield player must step in. The Comoros completed a training session on Saturday evening.
