CAN 2025 : Les Éléphants face au défi de la confirmation après les succès du Mali et du Cameroun
As the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations enters its decisive phase in Morocco, the pressure mounts on the defending champions. The successive qualifications of Mali and Cameroon for the quarterfinals now place Ivory Coast in the spotlight, on the eve of their clash against Burkina Faso this Tuesday, January 6th.
The awakening of neighbors and the "in-laws": The weekend was a banner year for Ivory Coast's historic rivals. On Saturday, Mali's Eagles displayed remarkable composure by eliminating Tunisia on penalties. On Sunday, it was Cameroon's Indomitable Lions' turn to triumph over South Africa (2-1). These successes are already fueling the verbal sparring on social media, where banter between supporters of these three nations has become an essential part of the competition.
The stakes for Emerse Faé: For Ivory Coast, the stakes go beyond simply qualifying. It's about maintaining their status as champions and avoiding the mockery of Malian and Cameroonian fans. However, coach Emerse Faé is opting for restraint. The objective is clear: ignore the media frenzy and focus on tactical efficiency against the Stallions of Burkina Faso. The match is set for the Grand Stade de Marrakech, promising an electrifying encounter.
