who won the last afcon

The most recent completed Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) was won by Côte d'Ivoire, who lifted the 2023 AFCON title on home soil.

Quick answer

• The last finished AFCON tournament was AFCON 2023 (played in early 2024 but officially the 2023 edition).

• Côte d'Ivoire won that tournament, defeating Nigeria in the final.

A bit more context

• Côte d'Ivoire’s 2023 triumph was their third AFCON title, adding to their previous wins in 1992 and 2015.

• Nigeria finished as runners-up in that final, continuing their record as one of the continent’s historically strong AFCON sides.

Why “last AFCON” means 2023

• As of late 2025, the next AFCON is the 2025 edition in Morocco, which is scheduled but not yet completed, so it does not have a champion yet.

• That makes the 2023 Côte d'Ivoire victory the answer when asking who won the last AFCON.
