The Confederation of African Football (CAF) and Morocco, host nation, have began to countdown ahead of the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations, Morocco 2025.
The host nation unveiled a giant countdown clocks in each of the six host cities, a striking reminder to fans that the continent’s premier competition is almost here.
The unveiling mark 100 days until the kick-off of the next AFCON, Morocco 2025.
With the unveiling, the road to Morocco 2025 has entered its final stretch and the clock is now officially ticking.
The clocks have been placed in Rabat, Casablanca, Fès, Tangier, Marrakech and Agadir, where tens of thousands of supporters will gather this December to welcome other African teams for the 2025 AFCON.
We now have 98 days to the much-anticipated opening match between hosts Morocco and Comoros on 21 December at 20h00 local time in Rabat, a clash that will officially launch the 35th edition of the tournament.
It will be the first time Morocco has hosted the competition since 1988, and the Kingdom is promising a world-class fan experience in some of the continent’s most iconic stadiums.
Each of the host cities is expected to come alive with football fever, blending Morocco’s famous hospitality with the electric atmosphere of the African game.
