Egypt, already through to the round of 16, enter their final group match free of pressure but determined to impress. Mohamed Salah’s Pharaohs, the undisputed leaders of Group B, are targeting a flawless finish to confirm their favorite status and secure a favorable draw for the knockout stage.
Even with a likely squad rotation, coach Hossam Hassan is intent on keeping the team’s winning momentum and defensive strength intact.
For Angola, the scenario couldn’t be more different. With just one point to their name, Patrice Beaumelle’s Palancas Negras are up against the wall. Only a victory against the seven-time African champions can keep their tournament dreams alive.
A win is the only way Angola can hope to claim second place in the group or secure a spot among the best third-placed teams, preventing a premature exit from the competition.
