Egypt is set to host this year’s African Cup of Nations, AFCON, finals from 21st June to 13th July, 2019.
This will be the fouth time that Egypt has hosted the Africa Cup of Nations. They staged the tournament in 1874, 1986 and 2006 and are the nation to have lifted the trophy the most times, winning the first edition in 1957 and crowned champions again in 1986, 1998, 2006, 2008 and 2010.
After Egypt, Cameroon have won the tournament the most times – they have five titles, Ghana have four and Nigeria have three.
