In a subsequent round of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations group stage, Equatorial Guinea will take against Guinea-Bissau at the Stade Olympique Alassane Ouattara on Thursday. On Sunday afternoon, the Elephants began their continental campaign against Nigeria by drawing 1-1 with the Super Eagles. Iban Salvador’s goal gave them the lead in the first half, and a few minutes later, their rivals tied the score.

When they play this week, Equatorial Guinea, who now sit second in their group with one point out of a possible three, will be hoping to keep up their strong play. The day before, Guinea-Bissau played their opening group match against the tournament hosts, Ivory Coast, and were defeated 2-0. Within four minutes of the start, they were behind goal, but shortly after the break, their opponents took advantage of a mistake made by Opa Sangate to extend their lead. In Group A, the Djurtus are at the bottom with 0 points. They will be motivated to break their losing skid this week as they still haven’t won in the Nations.
