Nigeria qualified automatically as both hosts and defending champions,[1] while the remaining seven spots were determined by the qualifying rounds, which took place from August to October 2002.

Format[edit]

Qualification ties were played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. If the aggregate score was tied after the second leg, the away goals rule would be applied, and if still level, the penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winner (no extra time would be played).

The seven winners of the final round qualified for the final tournament.
