African Cup of Nations 2000 - Best goals & Highlights

The 2000 African Cup of Nations was the 22nd edition of the Africa Cup of Nations, the association football championship of Africa (CAF). It was co-hosted by Ghana and Nigeria, who jointly replaced Zimbabwe as host. Just like in 1998, the field of sixteen teams was split into four groups of four. Cameroon won the championship, beating Nigeria in the final 4−3 on penalty kicks.

Wondering why the afcon is no longer attractive. Back then we couldn't wait for an afcon to start. I hope the next afcon brings back the excitement

UEFA succeeded in destroying AFCON

Some of Africa's best ever played in that final. For Cameroon: Wome, Song, Njanka, Geremi, Eto'o, M'Boma, Foe and Job and for Nigeria: Babayaro, Kanu, West, Finidi George, Adepoju, Okocha, Amuneke, Oliseh and Ikpeba. Really a great period for African football.

For Cameroon you forget the great Lauren of Arsenal

[@cevaking]

True, although he joined Arsenal months after the tournament.

I'm a Nigerian but to be fair the Cameroonians deserved the championship in 2000.They were so strong and determined.

[@jamesmaina8716]

Wow best afcon moments😢

[@マダ阿]

assistant referee was pathetic during the penalty kicks, the Nigerian player's kick clearly crossed the line

[@jamesmaina8716]

You are taking my memory back to this cup of nations

[@segun3553]

Nigeria would have won with VAR

[@rifeln5471]

No sure !

[@MithridatesIX]

Would have won is crazy. Did you watch the match? Not only were you lucky to end the match with 10 men, you were lucky to still be in the game after regular time.
