CAF bars Nakivubo from hosting continental ties

Uganda's return leg against Rwanda in the Africa U20 Cup of Nations qualifiers will be played at Namboole on April 23 after CAF rejected Nakivubo Stadium.

The continental football governing body banned the Kampala-based stadium because it failed to meet the required standards.

CAF gave the management of the stadium clearance to host the preliminary rounds of the CAF Champions and CAF Confederation Cup games for Vipers and SC Villa with hope that the stadium would be improved in the next stages but management failed due to insufficient funds.

One of the things CAF told the management to improve includes; putting new goal posts, floodlights and also improve on the playing surface and the dressing rooms among other things.
