Burkina Faso: Hervé Koffi prepares for the AFCON 2025

Mentioned among the selections that can shake up the hierarchy at AFCON 2023, Burkina Faso disappointed. The Stalons were stopped at the eighth-final stage, eliminated by Mali. For 2025, the team clearly has a revenge to take in order to make the people of Burkina proud. That’s what goalkeeper Hervé Koffi said in an interview at RFI.

"We will try to prepare well, also forget past experiences. The last past CAN was not easy. We were eliminated very early. What did not please the supporters and the Burkinabe people. This defeat in the eighth final was not acceptable because we had a very good group with quality players. I hope we can be forgiven at this competition. If we want to be forgiven, there is only one way to do it: bring back the gold medal. , 

he said. 

Burkina Faso will face Equatorial Guinea (Wednesday 24 December at 12:30 GMT, in Casablanca), Algeria (Sunday 28 November at 17:30 GMT, at the Moulay El Hassan Sports Complex in Rabat) and Sudan (Wednesday 31 December at 16:00 GMT, in Casablanca) in group E.
