The upcoming AFCON is just days away and there are group fixtures that promises to be mouthwatering. These are the top 3 hit games to look out for in the upcoming AFCON:
1. Morocco Vs Mali
On paper Morocco are better than Mali and in some quarters it is believed that Mali will not pose any challenge to the host nation.
However, what many do not know is that Mali are no pushovers, they have some of the most sophisticated squad on the continent, and can wreck havoc on any team.
2. Egypt Vs South Africa
This fixture will bring back the memories of the 2019 AFCON which Egypt hosted. The memories this match will evoke is that of pain for the Pharaohs who were knocked out of the tournament by the rampaging, fast paced, unpredictable South Africans.
Egypt known for their stoic, flawless and dynamic style of football will be gearing up to avenge for their 2019 loss. However, if revenge is all they feel right now, the result may be the same as that of 6 years ago.
3. Nigeria Vs Tunisia
This is another match that will evoke a bittersweet memory for either side. Bitter for the Nigerians but sweet for the Tunisians. In the 2021 edition of the AFCON Tunisia eliminated Nigeria, and this they did from the one chance they got.
