Africa Cup of Nations 2023 bracket and results

Check out all the results and venues for the Africa Cup of Nations, including the knockout bracket.

What was the Africa Cup of Nations format?

The 24 teams were drawn into six groups of four nations. The top two in each group advanced, along with the four best-ranked third-placed teams.

The competition then moved on to a knockout format, with round of 16, quarterfinals, semifinals and final.

Though the competition was played in January and February of 2024, it was the 2023 edition. It was originally due to be played in the summer of 2023, but was delayed due to concerns over the climate in the Ivory Coast.
