The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has officially announced the postponement of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025 qualifier between Libya and Nigeria, which was set to take place this evening in Libya.

In a brief statement released by CAF, the football body confirmed that the match would not proceed as planned but did not provide specific reasons for the postponement.

“The TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations Morocco 2025 Qualifier fixture between Libya and Nigeria will not take place as scheduled tonight,” the statement read.

CAF added that the issue surrounding the postponement would be referred to the appropriate bodies for further consideration.

“The matter will be referred to the competent CAF bodies,” the statement concluded.

The postponement comes amid rising tensions between the Libyan Football Federation (LFF) and the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) following the Super Eagles’ withdrawal from the match due to safety concerns after being stranded for over 13 hours at Al Abraq Airport in Libya.
