ABIDJAN: The first Africa Cup of Nations to be held in Ivory Coast in four decades gets underway on Saturday as the hosts, without their star forward Sebastien Haller, take on minnows Guinea-Bissau...
The dates for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) remain undecided amid a potential clash with the Fifa Club World Cup, according to Confederation of African Football (Caf) president Patrice Motsepe.
Some teams failed to meet expectation, while others came on stronger than ever.
African football chief Patrice Motsepe insisted Friday he is confident this year's Cup of Nations will not see any repeat of the kind of tragedy that marred the last tournament in Cameroon in 2022."I am satisfied the appropriate steps have been taken to make sure we will totally avoid the painful experience we had in Cameroon," Motsepe, the president of the Confederation of African Football, told reporters in Abidjan on the eve of the opening game between hosts Ivory Coast and Guinea-Bissau.
Over 300 athletes from across the country took part in the competition in Olembe last weekend.
