KUWAIT: The 23rd Gulf Cup of Nations is to be postponed for a year after it a request was approved at a meeting by chiefs of the GCC football associations, President of Kuwait Football Association (KFA) Sheikh Talal Al-Fahad announced Monday. The 23rd Gulf Cup of Nations was scheduled to be held in Kuwait in December, after Iraq withdrew from hosting it. The postponement request was presented at a meeting by the chiefs of the GCC football associations in Kuwait, said the official KUNA news agency. After the meeting, Al-Fahad told the press that the postponement request was due to the unpreparedness of sporting venues in Kuwait to accommodate an event of such magnitude.
