The draws were made earlier today (Saturday) in Auckland, New Zealand, one of the host cities of the competition.

Other African teams in the competition are South Africa in group G, Zambia in Group C and Morocco in Group H while Senegal and Cameroon still have chances if they win their playoff games.
The competition will kick off with New Zealand playing against Norway on July 20, 2023, while Australia, the other host country, play the Republic of Ireland the next day.
The Football fiesta would, in this edition, witness 32 teams all grouped into eight groups competing for honours.
