  2. On 6 January 2010, it was announced that Matip had decided not to participate in this tournament since he had not yet made up his mind whether he wanted to represent Cameroon or Germany internationally. As it was past the deadline, however, a replacement could not be called. Therefore, he was an official part of the Cameroonian squad for the tournament, though he was not actually present at the tournament.

The 2021 and 2023 tournaments were actually held in 2022 and 2024 respectively.
There were no 1957 and 1959 qualifications as places were given by invitation only.
The "finals" articles for 1959 and 1976 are about the decisive matches of final group stages.
