| The dates given for the qualifying matches on the RSSSF website for the African Cup of Nations appear to be wrong. I know that Ghana v Senegal in 1973 was played sometime in April and not September as listed. Does anyone have the correct dates and venues for all qualifying matches between 1970 and 1978? |

Yes they are mostly wrong - I think they came from someone (possibly Raoul da Silva Curiel) who found maybe 3 or 4 dates and then guessed the rest (or assumed all matches in a round would be on the same day).
A similar thing happened with CONCACAF, you can see on their website many of the dates for tournaments, Olympic qualifiers etc, are simply fiction. |
