TECNO Celebrates AFCON’s Electric Final Stages and Reaffirms Its Commitment to African Soccer
GLM TEAM 
As the ongoing AFCON tournament heads into its thrilling final stages, many South Africans will be wishing that our national team were still participating for the trophy. TECNO shares this feeling with local fans, but one thing that the brand is not disappointed about is the tournament itself and the excitement it continues to deliver.
As the official global partner of AFCON, TECNO has been celebrating every goal, assist, standout moment, and breathtaking play. The vibe, energy, scale and grandeur of the competition have been truly continental in spirit, global in reach and interest, and out of this world in excitement.
From Brahim Díaz scoring the opening goal of the tournament to soccer powerhouses such as Egypt, Nigeria, Morocco, and Senegal securing their semi-final spots, the atmosphere throughout AFCON has been nothing short of electric.

TECNO’s commitment to AFCON and to soccer across the African continent goes far beyond the game itself. The brand has witnessed firsthand how soccer ignites passion, builds communities, and inspires dreams, while AI-powered smart technologies continue to emerge as powerful tools that connect and empower millions across Africa. TECNO’s partnership with AFCON stands as a symbol of ambition and opportunity – a platform where young people can shine, united by an unstoppable spirit of progress.
This collaboration also reflects the shared vision between TECNO and the Confederation of African Football (CAF): to harness AI-driven innovation to help shape a brighter, more connected future for Africa.
As the final whistle for the tournament approaches, TECNO continues to celebrate the moments that bring Africa together, both on and off the pitch. Additionally, just like AFCON, the SPARK 40 range of smartphones is designed for those who live in the moment, capturing every goal, cheer, and shared memory with powerful AI-driven cameras, long-lasting battery life, and performance built for everyone, every day. Whether fans are watching the action at home, sharing highlights with friends or creating their own winning moments, TECNO’s SPARK 40 devices are made to keep South Africans connected to the excitement, long after the tournament ends.
TECNO is also already looking ahead, excited to continue supporting and celebrating African soccer excellence through its sponsorship of the 2027 AFCON competition, set to take place across Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.
