CAN 2025 : Chocs en série pour l’entrée en lice des Groupes C et D

The excitement surrounding the 35th edition of the Africa Cup of Nations intensifies this Tuesday, December 23, 2025. Following the opening matches, eight new nations will make their debuts in the competition. All eyes will be on the pitches of Rabat, Tangier, and Fez , the venues for the opening matches of Groups C and D.

The day's program

Tuesday's matches are crucial in determining the hierarchy of these two groups right from the start of the tournament.

Band Match Stadium
Group D DR Congo vs Benin Tangier / Fez
Group D Senegal vs Botswana Rabat
Group C Nigeria vs Tanzania Tangier / Fez
Group C Tunisia vs Uganda Tangier / Fez

Senegal, the clear favorite under the spotlight

Among the teams competing today, Senegal is attracting particular attention. The Lions of Teranga, champions in 2021, arrive as serious contenders for the title. For many observers, Sadio Mané's team is best equipped to succeed the Elephants of Ivory Coast on the continental throne.

Immediate challenges

Every point will be fiercely contested on this opening day. For nations like Nigeria and Tunisia , the objective is clear: avoid a slip-up so as not to prematurely use up their chances of qualifying for the round of 16.
