Egypt sealed top spot in Group B at AFCON 2025 after a disciplined 0-0 draw with Angola in Agadir. Knowing a point was enough, the Pharaohs focused on control rather than risk, finishing the group with seven points.

Angola were the more aggressive side and came closest to scoring, with chances from Chico Banza, Antonio Maestro and M’Bala Nzola, but Egypt goalkeeper Mohamed Oufa Shobeir stayed alert. Egypt’s defence handled pressure from set pieces and long spells of attack.

Without Mohamed Salah, Egypt lacked cutting edge, as Zizo struggled to turn possession into clear chances. Angola ended with two points, leaving qualification hopes slim, while Egypt march into the knockouts as group winners. Their calm approach reflected experience and confidence.
