The Africa Cup of Nations, known as the Coupe d'Afrique des Nations in French, is the premier men's football tournament contested by the member associations of the Confederation of African Football (CAF). This competition is Africa’s main men’s international tournament and has played center stage to the continent’s greatest players of all time, including Samuel Eto’o, Didier Drogba, Mohamed Aboutrika, Roger Milla, Jay-Jay Okocha, and others.
Tournament History and Expansion
The inaugural tournament had only three participants, with Sudan, one of those three competitors, hosting the event. The Africa Cup of Nations has undergone expansions over the years. In 1998, the number of participants reached 16. In July 2017, CAF decided to increase this figure to 24.

Qualification and Tournament Format
The hosts receive automatic qualification while the other nations have to book their tickets through a qualifying stage. The 24 participants are then drawn into six groups of four, with the two best-ranked teams in each group progressing to the round of 16.
They are joined by the four best third-placed teams in the knockout stage.
