Half a dozen nations have already seen their AFCON 2025 dreams end in Morocco.
Botswana, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Comoros are the latest teams to exit the competition.
Botswana were the first to leave after losing their opening two matches, with Equatorial Guinea and Gabon following suit shortly after, also failing to secure points in their first two games.
Zambia’s hopes were dashed on Monday night as hosts Morocco ran out 3–0 winners, sending the Zambians home.
Comoros became the first third-placed team to bow out, finishing their group matches with fewer points than at least four of the other third-placed teams.
On the brighter side, six nations have already booked their spots in the Round of 16: Algeria, Mali, Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa, and Egypt.
