Flying Eagles Land in Group of Fire! Nigeria Drawn with Tunisia, Morocco for 2025 U-20 AFCON in Egypt
The stage is set, the draw is done, and Nigeria’s Flying Eagles are bracing for battle in what promises to be an electrifying 2025 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), hosted by Egypt. The seven-time champions will have to navigate a tricky Group B that features not one, but two North African powerhouses – Tunisia and hosts Morocco – as well as East Africa’s rising force, Kenya.
Group of Fire? Absolutely.
As the most successful side in U-20 AFCON history, expectations are sky-high for the Flying Eagles, and rightly so. But this group? It’s no stroll in the park. Morocco, boosted by home continent advantage and recent youth development strides, are not here to play. Tunisia, known for their tactical discipline and technical finesse, will look to upset the hierarchy. And Kenya? They’re hungry to prove their worth among Africa’s elite.
Full Group Draw:

Group B

Group C

The competition kicks off on 27th April 2025, with hosts Egypt squaring off against South Africa in what’s expected to be a thrilling opener.
But all eyes will be on Group B — the real battle zone — where Nigeria’s Flying Eagles must soar higher than ever before. It’s not just about advancing; it’s about making a statement. After all, with Morocco and Tunisia lurking, there’s no room for a slow start.
Can the Flying Eagles Rise Again?
The question on every Nigerian fan’s lips: Can the Flying Eagles reclaim the throne and make it title number eight? With history on their side and talent bursting through the ranks, the dream is alive. But they’ll need grit, goals, and the Nigerian fighting spirit to come out of this group unscathed.
Strap in, Africa — the future stars are ready to shine.
