The Sudan national football team (Arabic: منتخب السُّودَان الْوَطَنِيّ لِكُرَّةُ الْقَدَم), also known as the "Falcons of Jediane," plays for Sudan in international football. The Sudan Football Association manages the team. Their home stadium is Khartoum Stadium in the capital city of Khartoum.
Sudan was one of the first three teams to play in the very first Africa Cup of Nations in 1957. The other teams were Egypt and Ethiopia. Sudan is one of Africa's oldest football teams. They won the 1970 Africa Cup of Nations when they hosted the tournament.

Team History
Early Days and Big Wins (1946–1970)
The Sudan Football Association started in 1936. This made it one of the oldest football groups in Africa. Football came to Sudan in the early 1900s through British colonizers from Egypt. Famous Sudanese clubs like Al-Hilal Omdurman and Al-Merrikh helped make football popular. The Khartoum League was Sudan's first national football league.
Because Sudan learned about football early, they quickly joined FIFA in 1948. Sudanese officials, along with those from Ethiopia, South Africa, and Egypt, helped create the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in Khartoum in 1957. After CAF was formed, Sudan hosted the first 1957 African Cup of Nations. The team finished third because South Africa was not allowed to play due to apartheid.
During this time, Sudan had many great players. These included Mustafa Azhari, the team captain, and Nasr El-Din Abbas, who became Sudan's top scorer. Siddiq Manzul was a key forward, and Ali Gagarin was also a very talented player. Sudan then won the 1970 African Cup of Nations. This is their only African trophy so far.
Challenges and Struggles (1970–2008)
After many star players retired, the Sudan national team faced difficulties. They played in the 1972 and 1976 tournaments but did not get past the group stage. Sudan also had civil wars and political problems. These issues made it hard for football to stay strong in the country.
Because of these challenges, Sudan struggled to qualify for more Africa Cup of Nations tournaments. They have also never qualified for a FIFA World Cup. Sudan often finished at or near the bottom in their qualification groups. This was very different from their club teams, which often did well in the CAF Champions League.
A Small Comeback (2008–2012)
On September 9, 2007, Sudan beat Tunisia 3–2 at home. This win helped Sudan finish first in their 2008 Africa Cup of Nations qualification group. It meant Sudan returned to the Africa Cup of Nations after 32 years. In the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations, Sudan was in a group with Egypt, Cameroon, and Zambia. They lost all three games and finished last in their group.
Sudan reached the final round of the 2010 World Cup qualifiers. However, they finished last in their group with only one point. They did not qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations or the World Cup that year.
In 2011, Sudan hosted the 2011 African Nations Championship. They won their group, which included Algeria, Uganda, and Gabon. They then beat Niger in the quarterfinals after a penalty shootout. In the semifinals, they lost to Angola, also on penalties. Sudan then won 1–0 against Algeria to finish third in the tournament. This was their first top-four finish in a major African tournament since 1970.
For the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualification, Sudan was in a group with Ghana, Swaziland, and Congo. They lost only one game and qualified for the tournament. In the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations, Sudan finished second in their group, just behind Ivory Coast. They advanced to the knockout stage for the first time since 1970. Sudan played Zambia in the quarterfinals and lost 0–3. Zambia went on to win the tournament.
Recent Ups and Downs (2012–Present)
In the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations qualification, Sudan lost to Ethiopia on away goals. They lost 0–2 in Addis Ababa after winning 5–3 at home. This meant they missed the competition. For the next seven years, Sudan continued to struggle to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations. They also did not qualify for the African Nations Championship until 2018.
In 2018, Sudan qualified for the 2018 African Nations Championship and finished in third place. This was seen as a sign of a new, better time for Sudanese football. Soon after, with many of the same players, Sudan qualified for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations. They finished ahead of strong team South Africa. They had important wins at home against Ghana and South Africa. This brought them back to the AFCON after nine years.
Sudan also beat Libya 1–0 in the qualification for the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup. This made people hopeful that Sudan would regain its strong position in Arab and African football.
However, Sudan had a difficult start in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification. They were in a group with Morocco, Guinea-Bissau, and Guinea. Sudan lost 0–2 to Morocco away from home. Then, they lost badly to Guinea-Bissau 2–4 at home. This put them at the bottom of the group. Sudan's hopes of qualifying for their first World Cup ended after two more draws against Guinea. They were the first team to be eliminated from their group.
Since the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, the "Falcons of Jediane" have had some important moments in international games.
In the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification, Sudan started well in June 2024. They beat South Sudan 3–0 in a Group B match. Players like Yasir Mozamil Mohamed and Mohamed Abdel Raman played a big part in this win. This result put Sudan at the top of their group early on. They will play stronger teams like Senegal in the future.
Despite the ongoing civil conflict, which forced them to play matches outside Sudan, the team qualified for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. They finished second in their group behind Angola. Key games in October and November 2024 helped them qualify. A draw against Angola secured their spot. This success showed their strength and ability to play well even in tough situations. They are continuing their strong performance by staying at the top of their group in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
