On 23rd December 2025, Nigeria’s Super Eagles will begin their latest bid to conquer the African continent again as the team tackles the Taifa Stars of Tanzania at the Fez Stadium in Fes.

Considering the team selected for this encounter and the fixtures, fans are already wondering how far the Super Eagles can go in this year’s AFCON?

During the last edition of the continental football competition, Super Eagles, then a three-time AFCON winners, lost when it was very close to add to its tally.

That was when Nigeria lost 2-1 to the host Cote d’Ivoire in the final, after taking the lead.

But in Morocco this year, Nigerian fans demand their national team truly conquers the continent in the Maghreb.

Three days after their encounter with Tanzania, Nigeria’s Super Eagles will play Carthage Eagles of Tunisia.

Nigeria’s last group match will be against the Cranes of Uganda on December 30 2025.

NewsOrient reports that the top two teams from the lot will automatically reach the round of 16, while four teams will join them as the best third-placed countries.

Below is a list of the Super Eagles of Nigeria’s group stage matches and kickoff at the 2025 AFCON in Morocco:

Group C — Morocco 2025

23 Dec: Nigeria vs Tanzania — 06:30 pm
(WAT/Nigerian time)

27 Dec: Nigeria vs Tunisia — 09:00 pm

30 Dec: Uganda vs Nigeria — 05:00 pm
(final group match).

Put in Group C, alongside Tunisia, Tanzania and Uganda, informed sports analysts say Nigeria not only stands the chance of qualifying for the finals, but is indeed considered “one of the favourites to win this competition in Morocco.”
