The 2019 Africa Cup of Nations is drawing closer, with less than a month to go before continental heavyweights clash in Egypt in the 32nd edition of Africa's biggest football tournament.

This will be the first event contested by 24 teams, instead of 16, and Tanzania are among the sides who took advantage of the expansion, with the Taifa Stars appearing for their first Afcon since 1980. 

Ahead of Emmanuel Amunike's team's opener, against Senegal on June 23, here's Goal's complete guide to Tanzania at the 2019 Afcon.

The inclusion of 15-year-old Kelvin John Pius in Tanzania's initial 39-man preliminary squad for the Africa Cup of Nations was the biggest talking point from the squad reveal, with the wonderkid named following his outstanding performances at the recent U-17 Africa Cup of Nations in Tanzania.

He was rewarded with a call-up to the senior team alongside another youngster Claryo Boniface from the under-20 side.

 Tanzania needed a final-matchday win to seal their qualification as they defeated Group L leaders Uganda to progress.

Two wins, two draws and two losses was enough to see them qualify for their first Afcon in 39 years, with Nigeria great Amuneke implementing an attractive style with the East African side.
