The Africa Cup of Nations is the biennial international men’s football championship of Africa. The 32nd edition of the tournament - organised by the Confederation of African Football (CAF), marks an expansion of the format, with 24 teams competing to be crowned continental Champions. Original hosts Cameroon were stripped of the tournament last year due to delays in stadia and security fears.
Host nation Egypt open the tournament against Zimbabwe in Cairo on June 21. Reigning champions Cameroon begin their campaign in Ismailia against Guinea-Bissau, while top ranked African nations Senegal and Tunisia kick-off their tournaments against Tanzania and Angola respectively.
A total of 52 matches will be played at six venues over four weeks, with the final taking place at the Cairo International Stadium on July 19.
