In the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, Mozambique secured their first-ever AFCON victory, defeating Gabon 3-2 in Agadir on December 28th, boosting their chances of advancing from Group F. Algeria also advanced to the last 16 after a 1-0 win against Burkina Faso, secured by a Riyad Mahrez penalty. Elsewhere in Group F, defending champions Ivory Coast drew 1-1 with Cameroon, leaving both teams at the top of the group.
