The COSAFA Cup Zambia 2013 has suffered a set-back after Equatorial Guinea withdrew at the 11th hour.
COSAFA said in a statement issued on Monday that Equatorial Guinea has confirmed that they will not be sending a team to the regional tournament that runs from July 6-20.
Equatorial Guinea’s withdrawal has reduced the field to 13 teams and has left Group A With three teams-Namibia, Mauritius and Seychelles.
According to COSAFA, the Equatorial Guinea FA cited lack of funds for their withdrawal from the July event.
“We are obviously disappointed with the fact that Equatorial Guinea have withdrawn because they would have added a lot to the event,” said Timoth Shongwe, the chairman of the tournament organising committee.
Shongwe added:” It was too late to call in another replacement, so we have to cut Group A to three teams which will no doubt make the pool even more competitive with every match vital.”
Lusaka, Ndola and Kitwe will host COSAFA Cup matches.
Who would want to risk going to Zambia at the moment, with those PF thugs lead by Kabimba and maggot Sampa
