"Our ambition is to win AFCON"- Sudan coach Kwesi Appiah after historic win over Equatorial Guinea

Kwesi Appiah has reiterated his desire to win the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations with Sudan.The Ghanaian trainer led Sudan to their first win at AFCON in 13 years after shocking Equatorial Guinea 1-0 in Group E's second match.Saul Coco's 74th minute own-goal was enough to hand Sudan victory and a chance to advance to the second round.I am happy with the win, but our ambition is to win the title, not just to achieve a single victory," said a confident Appiah after the game.The former Ghana coach will rely on the experience of his players if the team is to succeed in Morocco."We have experienced players and their performance was strong. We faced some difficulties, but we always try to show good quality in our matches to achieve victories. I thank everyone who supported us in this match, especially the fans," he added."When you take part in any tournament, the main ambition is to get through the group stage and go as far as possible. We achieved what mattered most, and we are mindful of these objectives of reaching the furthest stage possible. We are not here to just participate.Sudan will next face Burkina Faso, and a point will be enough for them to reach the round of 16.

Quick take: Match context: momentum and small details could decide this one, especially set-pieces and transitions. Form and fitness will matter; expect managers to rotate carefully around the congested schedule. Continental stakes raise the intensity, where away goals no longer apply but margins still feel razor thin. We’ll keep an eye on confirmed details as the story develops from official sources.
