Hibapress-RabaT-de after Afrik Foot
Monday, January 27, Rabat will host the draw for the CAN 2025, which will be organized in Morocco from December 21, 2025 to January 18, 2026. While waiting for this event, let us project ourselves on what would be the worst and the best possible draw for the host country.
As host country and best African selection at FIFA rankingMorocco obviously benefits from the status of seeded for this drawwhich guarantees him to avoid coming across cadors like the Ivorian holder, the Algerian rival, or even Senegal, Egypt and Nigeria, which are also all in hat 1.
The Morocco group at CAN 2025 will be made up of a team from each of the following hats:
- Hat 2: Tunisia, Cameroon, Mali, RD Congo, South Africa, Burkina Faso.
- Hat 3: Angola, Gabon, Uganda, Equatorial Guinea, Zambia, Benin.
- Hats off 4: Mozambique, Comoros, Sudan, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Botswana.
From there, the writing ofAfrik-Foot engaged in the game of projections.
The best draw for Morocco: Burkina Faso-Guinea Equatorial-Tanzania
For Morocco, the most mild draw would undoubtedly understand the Burkina Faso In hat 2. Disappointing in recent months and eliminated from the round of 16 of the previous edition, the Stallions certainly qualified the first for this CAN in Morocco. The fact remains that Bertrand Traoré’s teammates saw the doubts resurface at the end of the playoff with two defeats against Senegal (0-1) and especially against Malawi (0-3).
-In hat 3, the Equatorial Guineawho had seduced for a time during the last CAN, no longer made anyone tremble and qualified by winning only two victories (against the modest Liberia) and by being corrected 3-0 by Togo.
Finally, difficult in hat 4 not to opt for the Tanzania that the Morocco Overlapping 2-0 in November 2023 then 3-0 at the start of 2024 at the last CAN.
The worst draw for Morocco: Mali-Angola-Comores
Conversely, face the Mali would not have a gift for the host country. A quarter finalist of the last CAN, the Eagles have been undefeated since the appointment of their new coach Tom SaintFiet (4 victories, 2 draws) and always as solid and difficult to maneuver.
Also a quarter finalist of the last CAN and also undefeated during these qualifications, Angola would also act as a difficult draw for Morocco, which had all the sorrows of the world to get rid of the Negras palancas last March in a friendly match in Agadir (1-0).
In the same order of idea, the Comorosstill as catchy and followers of big blows in front of the cadors, would also have everything of a bad draw for Morocco. Especially since things went wrong for the last selection of North Africa which crossed the road to the Coelacanthes, Tunisia taking only one point in six facing them in the qualifiers of this CAN!
