2006 FIFA World Cup qualification – CAF second round

Format

The 30 teams (9 teams given a bye directly to the second round and 21 winners from the first round) were split into five groups of six teams each – with all teams playing home and away against each of the other five teams in the group.

The highest-ranked team in each group qualified for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, while the top three teams qualified for the 2006 Africa Cup of Nations (except in Egypt's case; since Egypt qualified for the tournament directly as hosts, fourth-placed Libya qualified in its place.)

Seeding

The draw was held on 5 December 2003 in Frankfurt, Germany. The thirty eligible teams were divided into six groups of five teams. Pot A contained the five teams that had participated in the 2002 FIFA World Cup, while the teams in pots B–F were ranked based on the most recent FIFA world ranking.
