Also referred to as CAN or AFCON, the Africa Cup of Nations is the main international football association competition in Africa, which, like Latin America and Europe, is one of the most important and popular places for soccer/football in the world.

The Africa Cup of Nations was founded in 1957 and is sanctioned by the Confederation of African Football, or CAF. Since 1968, it has been held every two years in June in a different African city, with winners being qualified for the FIFA World Cup championship.

A total of 24 teams will compete in the final tournament. Only the hosts received an automatic qualification spot, with the other 23 teams qualifying through a qualification tournament.

Egypt is the most successful nation in the cup's history, winning the tournament seven times. Three trophies have been awarded during the tournament's history, with Ghana, and Cameroon winning the first two versions to keep after each of them won a tournament three times.
