At the age of 29, Seko Fofana is playing in his first international competition with Côte d'Ivoire. As the icing on the cake, the Ivorian midfielder scored the first goal of the AFCON 2023, which is taking place in his country. A great source of pride for him."I was able to see just how much the great players have always wanted to win this AFCON, and unfortunately, there are some who didn't win, and when you have discussions with them outside the tournament, you can see just how much it has affected them too. My aim is to make sure everything goes well. But I think taking part in an African Cup of Nations and seeing all the excitement surrounding the competition, whether it's all over the world, is an incredible feeling, and seeing people tease each other about the teams on social networks is a lot of fun. We're just trying to enjoy ourselves," the Al Nassr midfielder told the CAF website.
