The 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, known in short as the 2023 AFCON or CAN 2023 and for sponsorship purposes as the TotalEnergies 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, was the 34th edition of the biennial Africa Cup of Nations tournament organised by the Confederation of African Football (CAF). It was hosted by Ivory Coast, taking place in the country for the second time following the 1984 edition.

This edition of the tournament was initially planned to take place during the Northern Hemisphere's summer like the 2019 Cup, in order to reduce scheduling conflicts with European club teams and competitions.{{cite web|date=21 July 2017|title=Africa Cup of Nations to switch from January staging to June in 2019|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/jul/20/africa-cup-nations-staging-expansion|website=The Guardian|access-date=20 July 2018}}{{cite web|date=21 July 2017|title=Africa Cup of Nations: Date switch makes African players more attractive, say agents|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/40673626|website=BBC Sport|access-date=25 July 2017}}{{cite web|last=Imary|first=Gerald|date=21 July 2017|title=African Cup of Nations finally moved away from mid-season and expanded from 16 to 24 teams|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/international/african-cup-of-nations-expansion-date-change-june-july-a7852881.html|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170725100032/http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/international/african-cup-of-nations-expansion-date-change-june-july-a7852881.html|archive-date=25 July 2017|url-access=limited|website=The Independent|access-date=25 July 2017}}{{cite news|date=26 October 2018|title=FIFA Council makes key decisions for the future of football development|url=https://www.fifa.com/about-fifa/news/y=2018/m=10/news=fifa-council-makes-key-decisions-for-the-future-of-football-development.html|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181026182831/https://www.fifa.com/about-fifa/news/y=2018/m=10/news=fifa-council-makes-key-decisions-for-the-future-of-football-development.html|archive-date=26 October 2018|publisher=FIFA|access-date=26 October 2018}} However, it was postponed by CAF to 13 January – 11 February 2024 on 3 July 2022 due to the summer weather concerns in Ivory Coast, although the competition retained the original name for sponsorship purposes.{{cite press release|date=3 July 2022|title=CAF President Dr Motsepe announces African Super League launch details, AFCON 2023 and Champions League key decisions|url=https://www.cafonline.com/press-release/news/caf-president-dr-motsepe-announces-african-super-league-launch-details-afcon2023|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220703210736/https://www.cafonline.com/press-release/news/caf-president-dr-motsepe-announces-african-super-league-launch-details-afcon2023|archive-date=3 July 2022|publisher=CAFOnline.com|access-date=3 June 2023|quote=...the Executive Committee has decided that this edition of the tournament will be postponed to the months of January and February 2024.

Host nation Ivory Coast won the tournament for their third title. They beat Nigeria {{nowrap|2–1}} in the final, having also beaten defending champions Senegal in the round of 16 in a penalty shootout after the allocated playing time had ended in a {{nowrap|1–1}} draw.

Host selection

The hosting rights for this edition of the tournament were initially awarded to Guinea during a meeting of the CAF executive committee on 20 September 2014, which also awarded the 2019 edition to Cameroon and the 2021 edition to Ivory Coast. At the time, the announcement of the 2023 host was unscheduled; Guinea was one of the bidders for the 2019 and 2021 editions, and per CAF's assertions, on the basis of the country's presentation "and commitment", the committee "decided to exercise its power to make an immediate decision."{{cite news|date=20 September 2014|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/29257382|title=Nations Cup: 2019, 2021 and shock 2023 hosts unveiled by Caf|publisher=BBC Sport|access-date=23 July 2019}}

A CAF executive committee meeting on 20 July 2017 brought about changes for the tournament moving forward, including an increase in group stage participation teams from 16 to 24 from the 2019 edition.{{cite web|date=20 July 2017|title=Decisions of CAF Executive Committee – 20 July 2017|url=https://www.cafonline.com/en-US/NewsCenter/News/NewsDetails?id=IBQIwLhKu2GhKGftIp0AZw%3d%3d|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170722210856/https://www.cafonline.com/en-US/NewsCenter/News/NewsDetails?id=IBQIwLhKu2GhKGftIp0AZw%3d%3d|archive-date=22 July 2017|website=CAFOnline.com|access-date=22 September 2023|quote=Increasing the Africa Cup of Nations to 24 teams as of the 2019 edition, and the tournament will now be held in the months of June and July.}} With the new specifications, Cameroon could not reach the preparation deadlines for the-then following 2019 edition and got stripped of the hosting rights on 30 November 2018,{{cite web|date=30 November 2018|title=Cameroon stripped of hosting 2019 Africa Cup of Nations|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/46407474|website=BBC Sport|access-date=10 December 2018}} with the hosting rights handed over to Egypt on 8 January 2019.{{cite web|date=8 January 2019|title=Egypt named as 2019 Nations Cup hosts|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/africa/46788780|website=BBC Sport|access-date=10 February 2022}} Cameroon opted for and hosted the 2021 edition instead,{{cite web|date=21 December 2018|title=Caf: 'Cameroon accepts to host 2021 Afcon'|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/46653173|website=BBC Sport|access-date=10 February 2022}} which led to original 2021 hosts Ivory Coast organising the 2023 edition.{{cite web|date=30 January 2019|title=Cote d'Ivoire agrees CAF timetable shift|url=https://www.cafonline.com/news-center/news/cote-d-ivoire-agrees-caf-timetable-shift|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220111091908/https://www.cafonline.com/news-center/news/cote-d-ivoire-agrees-caf-timetable-shift|archive-date=11 January 2022|website=CAFOnline.com|access-date=1 September 2019}} Guinea's hosting duties were pushed back to 2025, which until then had unscheduled hosts, though it could not get ready on time either and was eventually stripped from hosting.{{cite web|date=30 September 2022|title=CAF President discusses withdrawal by CAF of AFCON Guinea 2025 with Guinea Transition President|url=https://www.cafonline.com/press-release/news/caf-president-discusses-withdrawal-by-caf-of-afcon-guinea-2025-with-guinea-trans|website=CAFOnline.com|access-date=1 February 2023}}{{cite news|date=30 September 2022|title=Guinea stripped of 2025 Africa Cup of Nations: CAF president|url=https://www.beinsports.com/en/football/news/guinea-stripped-of-2025-africa-cup-of-nations/1959997|website=beIN Sports|access-date=23 December 2022}}

Although the tournament retained its original 2023 branding, it was moved to January–February 2024 upon Ivory Coast's request, in order to avoid the West and Central African tropical rain season, which typically reaches its peak around June–July.

The organising board of the 2023 African Cup of Nations, commonly called COCAN 2023, unveiled the competition's mascot "Akwaba", which means "Welcome" in Baoulé language. It is an elephant whose kit bears resemblance to the host nation Ivory Coast's home colours.{{cite web|date=8 July 2023|title=AKWABA', the Official Mascot of TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations Cote d'Ivoire 2023 launched|url=https://www.cafonline.com/caf-africa-cup-of-nations/news/akwaba-the-official-mascot-of-totalenergies-caf-africa-cup-of-nations-cote-d-ivo/|website=CAFOnline.com|access-date=10 July 2023}}

On 12 October 2023, CAF and Puma unveiled "Pokou" as the official tournament edition match ball ahead of the final tournament draw. The name was chosen to honour deceased legendary Ivorian forward Laurent Pokou, locally known for scoring five goals in the 6–1 victory over Ethiopia at the 1970 edition of the tournament, which had stood as a record to date.{{cite web|date=23 October 2023|title=CAF and PUMA announce the official TotalEnergies Africa Cup of Nations Cote d'Ivoire Official match ball: POKOU!|url=https://www.cafonline.com/caf-africa-cup-of-nations/news/caf-and-puma-announce-the-official-totalenergies-africa-cup-of-nations-cote-d-ivoire-official-match-ball-pokou/|website=CAFOnline.com|access-date=23 October 2023}}

=Official song=

On 12 October 2023, CAF unveiled "Akwaba", the official anthem for the competition during the official draw. The song features Nigerian artist Yemi Alade, Egyptian rapper Mohamed Ramadan, and Ivorian music band Magic System. The anthem, whose title means "welcome" in the native Baoulé language, is a fusion of Afrobeats, rap and zouglou considered stylistically similar to the competition's previous anthems.{{cite web|url=https://www.cafonline.com/caf-africa-cup-of-nations/news/yemi-alade-mohamed-ramadan-et-magic-system-interpretent-akwaba-l-hymne-officielle-de-la-coupe-d-afrique-des-nations-caf-totalenergies-cote-d-ivoire-2023/|title=emi Alade, Mohamed Ramadan and Magic System to perform TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations, Cote d'Ivoire 2023 official anthem|date=12 October 2023|website=CAFOnline.com|access-date=12 October 2023}}{{cite web|url=https://www.cafonline.com/caf-africa-cup-of-nations/news/akwaba-official-song-for-totalenergies-caf-africa-cup-of-nations-goes-live/|title=AKWABA, official song for TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations goes live|date=31 October 2023|website=CAFOnline.com|access-date=31 October 2023}}

All 54 teams originally registered for qualification was held in two rounds like in the previous editions in 2019 and 2021. Réunion and Zanzibar were not full members of CAF and were therefore excluded from participation. Eritrea withdrew after the first round draw. Kenya and Zimbabwe were suspended by FIFA at the time of the second round draw and were excluded from the competition after their suspensions were not lifted in time.

In the preliminary round, the twelve lowest-ranked teams in the FIFA world rankings of December 2021 competed against each other in a knockout system with two legs. The six winners of the preliminary round and the remaining 42 higher-placed teams were drawn into twelve groups of four in April 2022. The second round was played from June 2022 to September 2023 in a double round format. The group winners and runners-up from all twelve groups, with the exception of Group H, qualified for the final round. Apart from the hosts from Ivory Coast, only one other team qualified from Group H.

=Qualified teams=

The following teams qualified for this edition of the tournament with no debutant nation for the first time since the 2015 edition. Seventeen teams that participated in the most recent edition in 2021 returned for the event.

In September 2017, the government of Ivory Coast launched a public tender for the venues of the competition. This included public tender requested bids for renovating and expanding the existing Felix Houphouët Boigny Stadium in Abidjan and the Stade de la Paix (Peace Stadium) of Bouaké, and building new stadiums in Yamoussoukro as well as the cities of Korhogo and San-Pédro. The three new stadiums were to have a capacity of 20,000 each.

In addition to the renovation or construction of stadiums, the tender included the renovation or construction of training facilities in the host cities: eight in Abidjan and four in Bouaké, Korhogo, Yamoussoukro and San-Pédro. It also included the construction of 96 villas (five rooms per villa) in those cities. In addition, the bidding nations were to be submitted to build a three-star hotel of fifty rooms in Korhogo.{{cite news|date=20 September 2017|title=la Côte d'Ivoire lance un appel d'offres pour la construction d'infrastructures sportives et d'hébergements|trans-title=Côte d'Ivoire launches a call for tenders for the construction of sports infrastructure and accommodation|url=https://news.abidjan.net/articles/622530/can-2021-la-cote-divoire-lance-un-appel-doffres-pour-la-construction-dinfrastructures-sportives-et-dhebergements|website=Abidjan.net|access-date=2 September 2018|language=fr}}

  3. Goals scored in matches between the tied teams;
  4. If after applying all criteria above, two teams were still tied, the above criteria were again applied to matches played between the two teams in question. If this did not resolve the tie, the next three criteria were applied;
