MissEurasia Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Libya was stripped of hosting the tournament after fighting that has been going on in the country continues. Libya was going to host the 2013 AFCON but due to the Libyan Civil War, they traded years with South Africa (But the runner up Nigeria should have hosted because they were the reserved hosts) South Africa was supposed to host the 2017 AFCON but hosted 2013 and now Libya for the second time loses the rights to host the AFCON. Who do you think should bid? I think Eygpt should bid. They have got the stadiums which were built for their failed 2010 World Cup Bid, I also think Tunisia can host the AFCON.

Would love to see the Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium host some matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
