AFCON: See 3 Countries Eliminated From Tournament

At least three countries have been eliminated from the ongoing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, in Morocco after failing to register a single point in the group stage so far.

The three countries are Botswana, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.

Despite having one final game to play in the group stage fixtures this week, the aforementioned countries will pack their bags and leave Morocco irrespective of the outcome of their last group stage matches.

Botswana is currently in the bottom position in Group D with zero points after suffering consecutive defeats in their opening two matches.

They were beaten 3–0 by Senegal before losing 1–0 to the Benin Republic.

The Zebras still have a final group fixture against DR Congo on Tuesday; the results elsewhere in their group have already confirmed their elimination from the competition.

Similarly, Equatorial Guinea also suffered two defeats in Group E. They lost 2–1 against Burkina Faso in their first game before losing 1–0 to Sudan, leaving them without a point.

Also, Gabon bowed out early in Group F after back-to-back defeats. They lost their first game 1–0 against Cameroon before falling 3–2 to Mozambique in their second game.

Gabon sits bottom position in the group and are mathematically eliminated.
