Kick-off: December 26, 2025, at 17:00.

In Matchday 2 of the Africa Cup, Egypt vs. South Africa will take place at Stade Adrar in Agadir. Both teams made a successful start in Group B, collecting three points in their opening matches. Egypt claimed a dramatic win over Zimbabwe thanks to a stoppage-time goal from Mohamed Salah, while South Africa defeated Angola 2-1 in Morocco. The history of meetings between these sides at the continental championship dates back to the late 1990s: in 1996, the Pharaohs were stronger in the group stage, and two years later, they once again beat South Africa in the tournament final.

Egypt, under the guidance of Hossam Hassan, continues to justify its status as one of the main favorites of the competition. In qualification, the team delivered a convincing campaign, finishing first in Group C with 14 points and conceding only two goals. A major contribution to the national team’s success has come from Trezeguet, who is heavily involved in productive attacking moves. With one of the most reliable defensive units on the continent and a star-studded squad, Egypt is determined to extend its winning streak. For the seven-time African champions, a victory in the upcoming match would be an important step toward reclaiming the title after a 15-year wait.
