It is a long time since Egypt had a night this good. There have been two World Cup qualifications since their golden age of three successive Cups of Nations came to an end in 2010, and they've got to the finals of two Cups of Nations since, but this had a different feel to the knockout phases in 2017 or 2021 (played in 2022).
The group stages of Afcon 2025 come to a close tonight, with top spot in Group F still up for grabs. Cote d'Ivoire are looking to hold off Cameroon to join the other big names finishing first in their group: Morocco, Egypt, Nigeria, Senegal and Algeria. In order to do that, the Elephants need to match or better Cameroon's result against Mozambique in tonight's game.
