AFCON 2025 GROUP STAGE BEST XI: LOOKMAN & CHELLE LEAD NIGERIA’S SHINE

Nigeria’s Ademola Lookman dazzled with creative flair and killer penetration, while Coach Eric Chelle masterminded defensive steel and slick transitions to land in the star-studded Group Stage Best XI after Morocco’s thrilling opener.

Egypt’s Mohamed El Shenawy bossed goal with reflexes and leadership; defenders Noussair Mazraoui, Axel Tuanzebe, Edmond Tapsoba, and Maximilian El Abdi locked it down with poise. Midfield maestros Brahim Diaz, Carlos Baleba, and Lookman owned battles, while forwards Riyad Mahrez, Amad Diallo, and Sadio Mané lit up attacks.

This elite squad spotlights Africa’s depth, with Nigeria flexing big for knockout glory.
