For the Xaroule blog, the news surrounding the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco is at the heart of our concerns. And among the nations harboring high hopes, Benin, with its proud Cheetahs, is preparing to write a new page in its football history. After often-contested qualifiers and a qualification that galvanized an entire nation, the Beninese team arrives in Morocco with a mixture of humility and ambition.
The Road Traveled: A Rise to Power
The Benin national team has experienced its ups and downs over the years, but one constant remains: unwavering determination. Under the leadership of its coach, the team has found a balance, combining defensive rigor with offensive brilliance. Qualifying for the 2025 AFCON has not been easy, but each obstacle overcome has forged the character of a united group. This resilience is the result of in-depth work, and each jersey worn by a Cheetah now symbolizes this tenacity.
Major Assets: A Solid Collective and Individual Talents
The Cheetahs aren't built on a single superstar, but rather on a well-oiled collective where everyone contributes their bit. There are players playing in major European leagues, bringing their experience and professionalism, alongside local talents who know African football inside out. Names like Steve Mounié, whose power and goal-scoring skills are invaluable, or hard-working midfielders and seasoned defenders, form the backbone of a team capable of surprising. Their strength lies in their ability to play together, to fight for every ball, and to never give up.
The Goals in Morocco: Dream Bigger
Participation in the 2025 African Cup of Nations is not an end in itself for Benin. While the primary objective is to advance from the group stages—a feat that has been achieved in the past and remains a benchmark for supporters—the ambition is to make an impression. Each match will be an opportunity to showcase the progress made, excite fans, and prove that Beninese football deserves its place among the continent's great nations.
The Role of Supporters and Xaroule
Beninese fans are known for their fervor. Whether at the stadium or in front of their televisions, they will be the 12th man of the Cheetahs.
