U20 AFCON Qualifiers: Uganda Hippos Set for Semifinal Showdown Against Hosts Tanzania

The Uganda U20 Men’s National Team, known as the Uganda Hippos, will face hosts Tanzania in a crucial semifinal match tomorrow at the ongoing TotalEnergies U20 Africa Cup of Nations. The winner of this highly anticipated clash will earn a spot in the 2025 U20 AFCON Finals.

After a strong group stage performance, which included a 2-2 draw with South Sudan, the Hippos secured their place in the semifinals as Group B leaders.

Uganda is now focused on reaching their third consecutive U20 AFCON Finals, having qualified for the last two editions in 2021 and 2023.

Coach Matia Lule’s side will look to build on their momentum from the group stages, with key players such as John Paul Dembe, who has been in remarkable form throughout the tournament, expected to lead the charge.

Dembe scored a brace in the last match against South Sudan and will be crucial in the team’s bid for a final spot.

Facing a determined Tanzanian team on home soil adds extra pressure, but Uganda will be confident, given their recent performances in the tournament.

A win would not only send the Hippos to the final but also secure their place in the 2025 U20 AFCON tournament.

The semifinal is expected to be a tightly contested match, with both teams eager to capitalize on their tournament form and book their ticket to the finals.
