Nigeria is set to compete in Group C at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. The Super Eagles will face off against Tunisia, Tanzania, and Uganda in the opening stage. Their journey begins on December 23 against Tanzania at the Fez Stadium, followed by crucial matches on December 27 and December 30 to secure a knockout spot.
After a heartbreaking 2-1 loss to Cote d’Ivoire in the previous final, the team is determined to reclaim the title. With Victor Osimhen joining a full-strength squad, the objective is clear. As noted, “in Morocco, Nigeria’s target will be to go one more step further and conquer the continent in the Maghreb.”
To advance to the round of 16, Nigeria must finish in the top two of their group or rank among the four best third-placed teams. The schedule concludes with a late-afternoon clash against Uganda. Fans are hopeful that the three-time champions can finally secure their fourth continental trophy following their recent near-miss in the competition.
