The Gambia has booked their place in next year Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Cameroon.

The qualification to participate in the tournament is their first-ever.

The Scorpions achieved this great feat after beating Angola by a lone goal in Batu on Thursday.

The west African country sits second on group D, having the same — ten — points with Gabon, the group leaders.

The duo are well beyond the reach of DR Congo and Angola who have 6 points and 1 point respectively and have been eliminated with a round of fixtures remaining.

Gambia was slammed with a 2-year ban by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in 2014 for falsification of players’ ages.

The Scorpions join Comoros as the other debutants at the 2022 competition.

Twelve other teams have also booked their places in Cameroon.

The list includes Gabon, Ghana, Egypt, Zimbabwe, Equatorial Guinea, Algeria, Burkina Faso, Guinea, Mali, Senegal, Tunisia, and the host.
