Text: African Nations Cup 2012.
The 2012 Africa Cup of Nations, also known as the Orange Africa cup of Nations for sponsorship

co
reasons, was the 28th edition of the Africa Cup of Nations and was organized by the Confederation of
African Football (CAF). The competition was co-hosted in two countries; it took place in Equatorial Guinea
and Gabon from 21 January to 12 February 2012. The bidding process for hosting the tournament ended in

s.
September 2006 and the continental football federation, CAF, selected Equatorial Guinea and Gabon. The
matches were played in four stadiums in four host cities around the two countries, with the final played at
the newly built Stadium of Angondjè in Gabon’s largest city, Libreville. Fourteen teams were selected for

ge
participation via a continental qualification tournament that began in July 2010.
The 2012 edition of the Africa Cup of Nations was one of the most politically charged sports events
to take place. Libya and Tunisia’s national teams qualified for the tournament despite a political backdrop
rri
which saw both countries autocratic rulers ousted from power. Players of the Libyan and Tunisian national
teams had fought on the front line in their respective campaigns. The traditional football nations such as
o
reigning champions Egypt (also affected by political events), Cameroon, Nigeria, Algeria and South Africa
had failed to qualify.
tc

In the first round of the tournament finals, the teams competed in round-robin groups of four teams
for points, with the top two teams in each group proceeding. These eight teams advanced to the knockout
se

stage, where three rounds of play decided which teams would participate in the final. Both host nations,
Equatorial Guinea and Gabon, were eliminated from the competition at the quarter final stage.
In the final, Zambia defeated third-time finalists Côte d’Ivoire after a dramatic penalty shootout giving
e

Zambia their first continental title, becoming the fourteenth nation to win the tournament. The Zambian
uv

team dedicated their victory to the members of the national team who died near the final’s venue in
Libreville during the 1993 Zambia national football team air craft.
