The hard-fought triumph in Rabat, decided in extra time, not only ended Morocco’s hopes of lifting the trophy on home soil but also confirmed Senegal’s growing pedigree as a modern African powerhouse. With that success, attention has once again turned to the all-time AFCON winners list, highlighting the nations that have consistently dominated Africa’s biggest football stage.
Below is a breakdown of the countries with the most AFCON titles, their history, and how they achieved their success.
1. Egypt – 7 titles
Egypt remain the most successful nation in AFCON history, a record built on decades of dominance. The Pharaohs lifted their first title in 1957 and went on to establish an era of supremacy, particularly between 2006 and 2010, when they won three consecutive tournaments. Renowned for their tactical discipline, strong domestic league, and ability to perform under pressure, Egypt’s seven titles set the benchmark for excellence in African football.
2. Cameroon – 5 titles
Cameroon sit second on the all-time list with five AFCON crowns. The Indomitable Lions enjoyed golden eras in the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s, producing iconic players such as Roger Milla and Samuel Eto’o. Their success has often been built on physical strength, attacking flair, and a strong mentality in knockout matches, making them one of Africa’s most feared tournament teams.
3. Ghana – 4 titles
Ghana’s four AFCON titles underline their long-standing reputation as one of Africa’s traditional football giants. The Black Stars dominated the competition during the 1960s and early 1980s, with a style of play rooted in technical quality and tactical awareness. Although they have not won the tournament in recent decades, Ghana remain a regular contender and a respected force across the continent.
4. Nigeria – 3 titles
Nigeria have lifted the AFCON trophy three times, reflecting their consistency and depth of talent over the years. The Super Eagles claimed their titles in 1980, 1994, and 2013, each victory marking a different generation of stars. Known for their athleticism, attacking football, and ability to rise to big occasions, Nigeria continue to be a major presence in African football.
5. Ivory Coast – 2 titles
Ivory Coast have won the AFCON twice, with triumphs in 1992 and 2015. The Elephants’ success has often been driven by a golden generation of players, including Didier Drogba and Yaya Touré. Despite several near-misses and final defeats, Ivory Coast’s two titles underline their resilience and capacity to compete at the highest level.
6. Senegal – 2 titles
Senegal’s latest success against Morocco has elevated them into the group of two-time AFCON champions. After winning their maiden title in 2021, the Teranga Lions have now confirmed that triumph was no fluke. Built on defensive solidity, tactical discipline, and world-class talent, Senegal’s second crown signals the rise of a new dominant force in African football, capable of challenging the historical giants in the years ahead.
With Senegal’s victory adding fresh momentum to their footballing journey, the AFCON honours list continues to evolve, blending historic dominance with emerging powerhouses and reinforcing the tournament’s status as one of the most competitive continental championships in world football.

AFCON 2025: ‘I would never talk to you’ – South Africa’s Modise slams Diaz over strange penalty kick
Former South Africa international, Teko Modise, has slammed Morocco forward, Brahim Diaz over his penalty kick in their 1-0 defeat to Senegal in the final of the Africa Cup of Nations on Sunday.....TAP TO CONTINUE READING
Modise said he would never speak to Diaz again if they were teammates and he missed such a golden opportunity while trying to play stylish football.
Diaz wasted a golden opportunity to hand his country the trophy with the last kick of the game but he opted for a strange panenka which was no problem for goalkeeper, Eduoard Mendy.
The match had remained goalless after the referee disallowed Ismaila Sarr’s header for a foul on Achraf Hakimi.
And Diaz’s penalty came in the 97th minute, after a lot of tension, that saw the Senegalese players walk off the pitch.
Pape Gueye then stunned Morocco in the first half of extra time with a sublime left-footed finish, to ensure the West Africans emerged champions.
Speaking on SuperSport, Modise said there was nothing wrong with Diaz changing his style of playing penalty, especially as a penalty taker.
He also said that missing the penalty was not the problem but how the penalty was missed.
“You need to assume, like you’re rightfully saying, that people do analysis and see what type of penalties you normally take.
“But also, when you are in this moment, when you are five goals in and you are playing at home you can do that but you guys haven’t won the trophy for the last 50 years, and you were the most standout player in this situation.
“You want to write new history within your national team, you have such a big moment where you are surrounded by superstars but they are willing to give you the ball to actually take the penalty.
“You didn’t deserve it because you didn’t have a good game, but they’re willing to give you the ball to actually go and take the penalty, and then you do that?
“You know, seconds away from the game to end? That for me, I will never, if you’re my teammate, we are not talking to each other again. No conversations, in the bus, in the dressing room, wherever.
“The thing is, those who have taken penalties before they missed the penalty. It’s how you miss the penalty like a few seconds to go then you’re the champions, and you do that? You expect a handshake? You won’t shake this hand.
“And he had a penalty early on into the tournament where he scored. He used his right foot to score the penalty.”

At least two Premier League managers are facing imminent sack.....TAP TO CONTINUE READING
Tottenham chief executive, Vinai Venkatesham, arrived at the training ground early on Sunday morning as speculation intensifies over head coach Thomas Frank’s future.
Frank is under huge pressure following Saturday’s 2-1 home defeat to West Ham.
The ex-Brentford boss was booed by Spurs fans, who also sang “you’re getting sacked in the morning”.
Frank and the players also arrived at the training ground on Sunday, ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League home game against Borussia Dortmund.
Crystal Palace are reportedly considering sacking Oliver Glasner as manager just days after he announced he would leave the club at the end of the season.
Chairman Steve Parish is furious with Glasner, after the Austrian claimed he felt “completely abandoned” by the club’s hierarchy, following the sale of captain Marc Guehi to Manchester City.
