Football in Ivory Coast: African champions at home.
Football is not a leisure topic here, it is the first subject of conversation — in the workshop, in the office, in the maquis. In 2024 the country won the Africa Cup of Nations on home soil, after a tournament run that everyone can still recite. This page explains why that matters so much, who the names are, where the stadiums are, and how to see a match yourself.

A tournament nobody here forgets
At the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations the host nation very nearly went out in the group stage, changed coach mid-tournament, and still won the title — beating Nigeria 2-1 in the final in Abidjan on 11 February 2024. It was the third title after 1992 and 2015, and the first at home. Anyone who was here still talks about it.
