Afcon 2025 LIVE: Zimbabwe v South Africa and Angola v Egypt updates as group stages reach climax
Afcon 2025 LIVE!
South Africa will look to seal their place in the Africa Cup of Nations knockout stage as they take on Zimbabwe in their Group B decider, while Mohamed Salah is in action for group leaders Egypt in their clash with Angola.
Currently on three points, South Africa will need a win against Zimbabwe to guarantee the continuation of their 2025 Afcon journey. But with Zimbabwe going into the match on one point after drawing with Angola, the Warriors could pull off one of the early shocks of the tournament by sending a tournament favourite packing.
Salah’s Egypt will be in action at the same time as the clash in Marrakesh, with the eight-time winners hoping to hold off Angola in their bid to keep top spot.
