The third round of Africa Cup of Nations 2027 qualifying concluded on Saturday 14 November, with Morocco, Cote d’Ivoire, RD Congo and Mali maintaining perfect records after winning all three of their matches.
The 24 games played during the latest round strengthened the positions of several teams, while others slipped back in their respective groups. The four sides at the top of the standings have each collected three victories from three matches.
Egypt and Angola are level on seven points in Group B. The same total has left Benin and Burkina Faso tied at the top of Group F, with both teams also on seven points.
Algeria moved into sole possession of first place in Group I after a 1-0 victory over Togo. The result lifted Algeria above the rest of the group, while Togo dropped to third with three points.
The latest results have therefore created a number of closely contested groups, with only a small margin separating the leading teams in Groups B and F. In Group I, Algeria’s win gave them clear control of the standings, while Togo now have ground to recover.
Morocco, Cote d’Ivoire, RD Congo and Mali remain the only teams highlighted as having won every match after three rounds of the qualifying campaign.
