how often is african cup of nations played
Africa Cup of Nations As of 2013, the tournament was switched to being held in odd-numbered years so as not to clash with the FIFA World Cup.[3]
FIFA Confederations Cup The FIFA Confederations Cup is an international association football tournament for national teams, currently held every four years by FIFA. It is contested by the holders of each of the six (UEFA, CONMEBOL, CONCACAF, CAF, AFC, OFC) continental championships, along with the current FIFA World Cup holder and the host nation, to bring the number of teams up to eight. The tournament is also described as the Cup of Champions because it is contested by the Champions of each confederation and the world champions with the host.
