Just like Ghana who stumbled against Congo, Benin will not win their first victory at the 2023 African Games football tournament on Friday. The U20 Leopards drew with their Gambian counterparts, in the opening match of Group A. After a dull match, the two teams ended with a goalless draw (0-0). This result keeps the suspense in the group, with all four teams having 1 point each.

The competition promises to be tight in the coming days. Attention is already turning to the upcoming matches to separate the teams. On the second matchday, scheduled for March 12, Ghana will face Gambia, while Benin will take on Congo. These matchups are crucial for the rest of the tournament.
