Sudan head coach Kwesi Appiah has expressed confidence in his team’s ability to make a significant impact at the upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), scheduled to take place in Morocco later this year.
The Falcons of Jediane have been drawn into Group F, where they will face Algeria, Burkina Faso, and Equatorial Guinea.
Reacting to the tournament draw, the former Ghana coach emphasized that Sudan is ready to compete without fear.
“Sudan is in Group E, and all the teams there are really good. For me, if you are participating in a competition, your goal should always be to aim for the cup,” he said.
“If you’re afraid of any team, then why are you participating in the competition in the first place? I believe Sudan will perform very well, and I’m hopeful that, no matter the team we face, we will try our best to get a victory,” Appiah added.
The 2025 AFCON is set to kick off on Sunday, December 21, with the final scheduled for Sunday, January 18, 2026.
