The 2017 Africa Cup of Nations (abbreviated as AFCON 2017 or CAN 2017), known as the Total 2017 Africa Cup of Nations for sponsorship reasons, was the 31st edition of the Africa Cup of Nations, the biennial international men's football championship of Africa organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF). The tournament was scheduled to be hosted by Libya,[1] until CAF rescinded its hosting rights in August 2014 due to the Second Libyan civil war.[2] The tournament was instead hosted by Gabon.[3] This event was also part of the Africa Cup of Nations 60th Anniversary.
Cameroon won their fifth title after defeating seven-time champions Egypt 2–1 in the final.[4] Burkina Faso finished third after beating Ghana 1–0 in the third place play-off.
As champions, Cameroon qualified for the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup in Russia. Tournament hosts Gabon and defending champions Ivory Coast were both eliminated in the group stage.

CAF received 3 bids before 30 September 2010, the deadline, to host either the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations or 2017 from DR Congo, Morocco and South Africa. All three bids were originally put on a shortlist.[14] CAF then began an inspection procedure, on November and December 2010, intending to visit each bidding country to view stadiums, infrastructure, and football interest. They inspected the DR Congo first.[15] Shortly after the inspection, DR Congo informed CAF that they would be withdrawing their bids for both the 2015 and 2017 Africa Cup of Nations tournaments.[16] Morocco was the next country to be inspected, with CAF visiting the country in early November 2010.[17] South Africa was inspected in December 2010.
| Nation | Last hosted |
|---|---|
| Morocco | 1988 |
| South Africa | 2013 |
On 29 January, during the 2011 CAF Super Cup, the CAF executive committee decided that Morocco would host 2015 Africa Cup of Nations, while the 2017 edition would be held in South Africa. However, due to the Libyan Civil War, Libya and South Africa traded years with South Africa hosting in 2013 and Libya hosting in 2017.[1]
Second bidding
Bids :
- Algeria
- Egypt
- Gabon
- Ghana
After Libya was withdrawn as the venue on 22 August 2014, the CAF announced that they would be receiving applications for the new hosts until 30 September 2014.[18]
Algeria, Egypt, Gabon, and Ghana, were determined by the CAF to be compliant with the host criteria.[19][20] Later, Egypt withdrew.[21]
Other countries which expressed an interest but did not bid included Ethiopia,[22] Mali,[23] and Tanzania.[24] Kenya discussed a joint bid with neighbors Rwanda and Uganda,[25] but eventually bid alone.
On 8 April 2015,[26] CAF President Issa Hayatou announced Gabon as the replacement hosts following votes by the CAF Executive Committee.[3]
| Results | |
|---|---|
| Nation | Votes |
| Gabon | 9 |
| Algeria | 4 |
| Ghana | 0 |
| Egypt | Withdrew |
| Total votes | 13 |
Qualification
The draw for the qualification stage took place on 8 April 2015, immediately after the announcement of the host nation.[26] The host nation team were also drawn into a group and would play games against those in that group; however, those matches would only be considered as friendlies and not counted for the standings.
51 nations entered the qualifying stage with Eritrea and Somalia declining to enter and Chad withdrawing.
Due to the cancellation of Morocco being hosts of the 2015 edition, the national team of Morocco were originally banned by CAF from entering the 2017 and 2019 Africa Cups of Nations.[27] However, the ban was overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport, allowing Morocco to enter the tournament.[28]
Three-time champions Nigeria did not qualify.[29]

- Number of points obtained in games between the teams concerned;
- Goal difference in games between the teams concerned;

- If, after applying criteria 1 to 3 to teams concerned, two or three teams still had an equal ranking, criteria 1 to 3 were reapplied exclusively to the matches between these teams in question to determine their final rankings. If this procedure did not lead to a decision, criteria 5 to 7 applied;
- Goal difference in all games;
- Goals scored in all games;
- Drawing of lots.

"They are running the Africa Cup in a country where the dictator Ali Bongo is killing innocent people!"[44]
