Notes

1. Niger were awarded a 3–0 victory by forfeit after Congo refused to travel to DR Congo for their home match on 6 June, insisting that they play in Brazzaville. ^[3]
2. Initially, Congo won 2–1 on aggregate. However, following a ruling by the CAF Disciplinary Committee in favor of Equatorial Guinea, Congo was found to have fielded an ineligible player in both matches. ^[4] As a result, both matches were declared forfeited by Congo, awarding Equatorial Guinea a 6–0 aggregate victory. ^[5]
3. Tanzania were awarded a 3–0 victory by forfeit due to Congo's suspension by FIFA on 6 February for government interference in Congolese Football Federation operations. The suspension was lifted on 14 May 2025. ^{[6] [7]}
4. Zambia were awarded a 3–0 victory by forfeit due to Congo's suspension by FIFA on 6 February for government interference in Congolese Football Federation operations. The suspension was lifted on 14 May 2025. ^{[6] [7]}
