The 1998 African Cup Winners' Cup was the twenty-fourth season of Africa's second oldest club football tournament organised by CAF. As before, the tournament was open to clubs that won their nation's premier domestic cup. Espérance of Tunisia won the cup after defeating Angola's Primeiro de Agosto 4-2 in a two-legged final. It was ''Espérance's'' first Cup Winners' Cup triumph and their fourth African club title while ''Primeiro de Agosto'' made their first appearance in a continental final. == Association team allocation == A total of 39 teams from 39 CAF associations qualified for the tournament after winning their respective premier domestic cups. Of the 39 teams that qualified for the tournament 4 would not participate in it while 1 withdrew and was replaced by another club from its association; * Teams from the Central African Republic were all disqualified from CAF's competitions because their federation was in debt to CAF. This meant TP USCA Bangui, who were slated to participate in the Preliminary Round, were not allowed to fulfill their fixtures. * Congolese club AS Vita Club, who were also due to appear in the Preliminary Round, withdrew before the tournament started. * The Senegalese football federation withdrew its representative before the tournament began. The name of the club that was to represent Senegal was never given * Gambian club Hawks, who were set to appear in the First Round, withdrew before their first leg tie with U.S.M. Alger. * Kaizer Chiefs were originally set to represent South Africa but they withdrew before the tournament started. Their place was taken by the team they defeated in the cup final that qualified them for the tournament, Mamelodi Sundowns. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1998 African Cup Winners' Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
