The African trio of Egypt, Mali, and Morocco are set to face challenging groups in the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics.
Egypt’s U23 team will square off against Spain in Group C, alongside the Dominican Republic and another team from the Asian Football Confederation (AFC).

Group B sees world champions Argentina pitted against Morocco, Ukraine, and another AFC qualifier.
Group D comprises Paraguay, Mali, Israel, and the final AFC qualifier.
The football tournament kicks off two days prior to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games opening ceremony, commencing on July 24, 2024.
