Participating teams
No qualifying took part, but teams were invited.[4] Nigeria and Ghana were seeded and put in different groups.[5] Ghana then withdraw on short notice and were to be replaced by Nigeria's A national team, but that was withdrawn later too, due to lack of funding from the Nigerian FA.[6] DR Congo then took part at a last minute replacement.
