African Cup of Nations 2025 API

Today marks the final day of AFCON 2023 but first there is the small matter of the highly anticipated final between host nation Cote D'Ivoire and the Super Eagles Nigeria. This will be the first time both teams meet at the AFCON finals. If Cote D'Ivoire win it will be the first time since 2006 that a host nation wins the competition. However, Nigeria have the psychological advantage after beating Cote D'Ivoire 1-0 early on in the group stage. The two sides now have an identical head-to-head record following Nigeria’s narrow win in the group stage. Nigeria had previously lost four of their previous six meetings against Ivory Coast. Historical data shows both teams have won 9 times against each other drawing 10 times in the process.

This is the 7th Africa Cup of Nations competition in a row resulting in the reigning AFCON champions failing to reach the quarter-final stage since Egypt in 2010. The reigning champions Senegal were held to a 1-1 draw by host nation Ivory Coast after a late equalizer by Franck Kessie forcing the fixture to a penalty shoot-out. Senegalese Moussa Niakhate was the unfortunate player to miss the only spot kick of the shoot-out resulting in an early exit for Senegal. The quarter finals are already underway and we are guaranteed to see a different winner in this year's competition. Our Africa Cup of Nations API provides all the penalty shoot-out action through our live score endpoint in all knockout fixtures at AFCON 2023. We provide live information on who scored their penalty kick and who missed.
