Xinhua News Agency, Cairo, January 8 (reporter Li binian) according to an Egyptian national television report, the African Football Association announced on the 8th that Egypt won the right to host the 2019 African Nations Cup football match.
The African Nations Cup football match will be held in June 2019, and the competition will expand to 24 teams. The former host country Cameroon was deprived of the right to host the Games because the African Football Association believed that there was a big gap between Cameroon’s ability to host the Games and the competition needs. Then Egypt and South Africa expressed their willingness to take over.
Egypt has won the African Cup seven times.
