The 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign is in the books, with all 24 qualifiers for next year's biennial competition now confirmed. ESPN present the definitive recap on all things AFCON.

It was a frantic and intense AFCON qualifying group stage, with high-profile sides like Ghana missing the finals and some of the continent's lesser lights looking forward to a shot at Africa's grandest prize.

Losing to Rwanda was not the result Nigeria were expecting in their final game of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, despite having already sealed their place in Morocco.
