Algerian international, Islam Slimani, affirmed that the Atlas Lions are the favorites to win the title of the African Cup of Nations, Côte d’Ivoire 2023, alongside the team of the host country, Côte d’Ivoire, and Egypt.
auxA few weeks before the kick-off of the Africa Cup of Nations, Côte d’Ivoire 2023, the 35-year-old Algerian striker declared in an interview with Canal+Sport Afrique that Morocco is among the favorites to win this edition. “There is hope of repeating the feat of 2019. Like all teams, we are going there to accomplish something. However, I think other teams are favorites. There is Ivory Coast, Morocco, Egypt. In my opinion, they are more favorites than us, especially after our elimination in the first round during the last CAN,” he said. As a reminder, the Moroccan selection was placed in Group F during the CAN 2023 draw, along with the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia and Tanzania.
