Sudan’s head coach, James Kwesi Appiah, is backing his team to make a strong impact at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Morocco.
Following the official draw on Monday, January 27, Sudan was placed in Group E alongside Algeria, Burkina Faso, and Equatorial Guinea. Despite the tough competition, Coach Appiah remains optimistic about his team’s chances.
Speaking to Akoma FM, he emphasised Sudan’s ambition to compete for the ultimate prize.
“Sudan, we are in Group E, and all the teams there are really good. For me, for you to participate in a competition, then your aim should be to go out there to win the cup.
“If you’re afraid of any team, then why are you participating in the competition in the first place? I believe that Sudan will perform very well and I’m hopeful that any team that we meet, we will try our best to get a victory,” Coach James Kwesi Appiah said.
The 2025 AFCON is set to begin on Sunday, December 21, and will conclude with the final on Sunday, January 18, 2026.
