CONFIRMED! Durban set to host 2019 Cosafa Cup

Following Zimbabwe's decision not to host the 2019 Cosafa Cup, the regional tournament will now take place in Durban

The 2019 Cosafa Cup will be staged in the South African coastal city of Durban from May 25-June 8, serving as vital preparation for the region’s Africa Cup of Nations-bound sides.

The prestigious regional tournament will be hosted in partnership with the South African Football Association and the eThekwini Municipality, with venues around the city to enrich the 14-team competition.

Durban is a world-class sporting hub that was a major centre during the 2010 FIFA World Cup and combines top sporting facilities with excellent transport infrastructure, having played host to numerous domestic cup finals in recent years.
