Meet Amina Fall, a Senegalese photojournalist making her mark at the AFCON in Morocco.
While the world watches the goals, the saves, and the nail-biting matches of the Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco, another kind of talent is working quietly on the sidelines. Her name is Amina Fall, a Senegalese photojournalist whose camera is telling the story of the tournament in a way that has captured the admiration of football fans everywhere.
The 2025 AFCON, hosted by Morocco, has been a feast of football. Teams like Nigeria, Cameroon, and the host nation have delivered thrilling performances, with the Super Eagles of Nigeria, for instance, winning all their group matches to power into the semi-finals. But for many following the action online, the tournament is being defined as much by the pictures as by the scores.

Amina Fall has become a standout voice in that visual conversation. With years of experience, she has a knack for finding the moment that speaks louder than words—the agony of a missed chance, the pure joy of a last-minute winner, or the quiet concentration of a player before a penalty. It’s this skill that has fans talking. On social media, comments praising her sharp eye and compelling compositions are piling up just as fast as the match highlights.
“She doesn’t just take photos; she tells the whole story in a single frame,” wrote one fan on X (formerly Twitter). Another added, “Her work makes you feel like you’re right there on the pitch.” The appreciation isn’t just for her professional skill; many have also noted how her presence is breaking stereotypes in a field often dominated by men.
It’s important to note that this exciting tournament is a special one in AFCON’s history. While the action is started from late 2025, the final will be played in January 2026. This edition in Morocco marks the end of the current two-year cycle. Looking ahead, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) has decided that starting from 2028, the beloved tournament will be held every four years, a change that will build even greater anticipation for Africa’s top football event.
For now, all eyes are on Morocco. And as the continent’s best players battle for glory, Amina Fall will be there, camera in hand, ensuring none of the passion, drama, or beauty of African football is ever forgotten. She isn’t just covering AFCON; through her lens, she’s helping define how we remember it.
