The Hippos, Uganda’s U-20 men’s national football team, will compete in the upcoming 2023 U-20 Africa Cup of Nations in Group B.
Uganda was placed in group (B) together with the Central African Republic, Congo Brazzaville, and South Sudan during the draws held in Cairo, Egypt.
It should be mentioned that South Sudan was beaten by Uganda in the finals of the CECAFA regional qualifiers, which were held in Sudan last month.
Uganda will take part in this level of the competition for the second time.
In their first appearance, the Uganda Hippos last year advanced to the final but fell to Ghana.
