itself independent from Somalia in 1991; this independence is

Sanag 2-2 Sahel
Sanag - qualified (aka Sanaag)
Sahel - qualified (aka Saaxil)
Awdal - eliminated
NB: the Sep 27 replay result qualified both Sanag and Sahel, eliminating
Awdal; the technical committee annulled the 2-2 result on the evening
after the match alleging the match had been arranged, but withdrew
that decision the following day, leading to furious protests by Awdal
who withdrew. Presumably all matches in this group were drawn but
Awdal eliminated on goals scored.
