cheapgoals:
Playing at the highest level of National team football is every professional football player’s dream, a status which the African Cup of Nations and other Continental competitions have, just right behind the FIFA World Cup.

For every player born or eligible for an African team, playing at the AFCON is an achievement of the sort. Since the inaugural edition of the competition which saw three teams participate in it, the competition has grown in leaps and bounds with the number of participating teams rising.

In 2019, the competition for the first time sees a record number of 24 teams participating and as expected three new countries have registered their names on the attendance sheet for the biggest football fiesta in Africa.

Madagascar, Burundi and Mauritania join thirty-nine others who have featured at the AFCON having qualified for the first time in their histories, however, with the 24-team format more teams are expected to debut at the competition in subsequent edition but until then, here are the teams that have never played at the AFCON

To me, South Sudan has the best team name there, but war nor let them see road...

Is it me or am I really seeing double here? Central African Republic and Seychelles are the same players. And Somalia have same or similar players on the back row [three players starting from the right] as Seychelles and Central African Republic.

The cone heads and Fulani herdsmen will soon join the list

YoungFr:
I'm not surprised to see Somalia and South Sudan on the list

I'm surprised that Chad who boasted the great Japhet N'doram have never been there.

Also Gambia have very good underage teams so surprised they have never qualified.

Stop living in denial... The Republic of Biafra is the current super eagle, and same Biafra today can produce 10 more super eagles squad

Truth is, many of them will never play AFCON or any international match till Jesus comes.
