2022 Beach Soccer Africa Cup of Nations

(Redirected from 2022 Africa Beach Soccer Cup of Nations)

The 2022 Africa Beach Soccer Cup of Nations was the fifth edition of the Africa Beach Soccer Cup of Nations (BSAFCON),[1] the premier beach soccer championship in Africa contested by men's national teams who are members of the Confederation of African Football (CAF). The championship was originally organised by Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW) under the title of FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup CAF qualifier[2] (also informally known as the CAF Beach Soccer Championship). In 2015, CAF became its organisers and began using the BSAFCON title to which the competition was officially renamed the next year.[3] Therefore, this was the 11th edition of the event overall.

The tournament takes place in Mozambique, which was confirmed as the host nation on 16 May 2021;[4] the city of Vilankulo stages all matches between 21 and 28 October 2022.[5][6] It is happening in only the next calendar year after the previous edition because said edition was postponed due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in Africa.

The tournament also acted as the qualification route for African teams to the 2023 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup in the United Arab Emirates; with the winners and runners-up qualifying.

Senegal were the defending champions and successfully defended the title after defeating Egypt in the final to secure their 7th title.

The 2022 Africa Beach Soccer Cup of Nations qualifying round determined the eight teams that will compete in the final tournament in October.

The fixtures were announced by CAF on 24 June 2022.[6] The matches were played on the weekends of 22–24 July and 5–7 August.

Qualification ties were played on a home-and-away, two-legged basis. If the sides were level on aggregate after the second leg, the away goals rule was applied, and if still level, the tie proceeded directly to a penalty shoot-out (no extra time played).[7]

Entrants

Fourteen teams entered qualifying. The seven winners of the ties qualified for the final tournament, joining one automatic qualifier – the hosts, Mozambique.[6]

Matches

Libya withdrew before the first legs were played.[9]

Ivory Coast refused to continue their second leg match in protest of a penalty awarded to Morocco in the final moments of the game, and thus the match was abandoned with the score at 3–3.[10] The outcome was referred to CAF.[11] On 19 August, CAF announced their decision in applying Articles 54 and 56 of Chapter 30 (Withdrawals, Refusal to Play, Replacement) of the tournament regulations, thereby awarding Morocco with a 3–0 walkover victory in the second leg.[12][13]
