DR Congo and Benin will kick off Group D of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations on Tuesday afternoon when they meet at the Al Barid Stadium in Rabat. With Senegal and Botswana still waiting later in the group, both sides know this opener could shape everything that follows, so starting well matters, maybe more than usual.
DR Congo arrives in Morocco with confidence that has been building for months now. After reaching the semi-finals at the last AFCON and falling only to eventual champions Ivory Coast, Sebastien Desabre's side has continued to grow.
DR Congo posted photos of their players training ahead of the game via their official X account.
