Schedule

After the rescheduling of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations final tournament from June/July to January/February, the dates of Matchdays 1 and 2 of the second round were rescheduled.

On 6 May 2021, the second round was once again postponed due to the pandemic, and all matches were rescheduled to be played between September and November 2021.

Notes

1. The Angola v Gabon match, originally to be played at 17:00 UTC+1, was delayed by 90 minutes because the Gabonese players did not undergo COVID-19 tests when arriving Luanda.
2. An appeal by the South African Football Association alleging that the match had been fixed was declared inadmissible by FIFA.
3. Originally to be played on 6 September 2021 at the General Lansana Conté Stadium in Conakry, the Guinea v Morocco match was postponed and relocated due to security concerns following the 2021 Guinean coup d'état.
4. An appeal by the Benin Football Federation alleging that DR Congo had violated the substitution rules in the match was declared inadmissible by FIFA.
