Sport Today

Available for over a year

It鈥檚 a crucial week in African football as the final rounds of fixtures take place to decide which countries will play at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. Some teams have already qualified or have been eliminated, while some have all to play for. One of the stories of the week could be four-time champions Ghana not qualifying for the tournament for the first time since 2004. Sudan would be an against all odds story if they qualify, while holders Ivory Coast and previous winners Nigeria and South Africa are amongst the teams still to confirm their place. Sport Today鈥檚 John Bennett is joined by former South Africa captain Dean Furman and Ghanian football journalist Rahman Osman to discuss the big talking points.
