Libya is skipping the 2015 AFCON qualifiers entirely? That’s a big move—probably due to ongoing instability in the country.
Instead, they’re using the time to prepare with a friendly against Morocco on September 7. Morocco, as hosts, don’t need to qualify anyway, so it’s a good warm-up for both teams.
Libya’s camp is based in Tunisia ahead of the match, and coach Javier Clemente named 21 players for the friendly, but the squad list was eventually set aside.
Interesting approach, focusing on friendlies rather than the qualifiers. Anything else you want to know about Libya’s team or the qualifiers?
