Ivory Coast reportedly withdraws from hosting 2025 U-20 AFCON weeks before kick-off
Ivory Coast withdraws from hosting the 2025 U-20 AFCON just weeks before kick-off, citing government logistical and financial concerns.
The result took Algeria further away from the chasing pack, Uganda among them, denting Cranes hopes of automatic qualification via claiming the top spot.
However, it did leave the side with hopes of catching up to second-placed Mozambique who sit on 12 points, just four shy of Uganda with four games to go.
While claiming a top spot finish is still mathematically possible, if that route puts a damper in their ambitions, Uganda will hope to catch up to second-placed Mozambique and perhaps overtake them.

AFCON 2025: Uganda Cranes coach on why this year's tourney is precursor for the 2027 edition
Cranes were urged by coach Paul Put to showcase talent at AFCON 2024, a crucial step before East Africa hosts in 2027.
This will put them in a position where they could potentially contest to be among the four best runners-up in the groups, providing them with another chance of qualification.
The four best second-placed teams will face off in two semi-finals before a final where the winner will have an opportunity compete against other global regions for a final chance at qualification.
With games against Mozambique and Somalia at home and Botswana and Algeria away yet to come, Cranes head coach Paul Put will hope his charges get the kind of results that will strengthen their position.
