Nigeria aim for top spot as they face Egypt in crucial WAFCON clash
The Super Falcons are set for a decisive encounter against Egypt in the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations group stage. Nigeria must win and score as many goals as possible to boost their chances of finishing first in Group C. The outcome of the other match between Malawi and Zambia will also impact the final group standings. Every goal could be vital as teams vie for a favourable quarter-final draw.
Match highlights
- Nigeria face an already-eliminated Egyptian team in Rabat, needing a win to stay in contention for the top spot in Group C.
- If Zambia beat Malawi and Nigeria defeat Egypt, all three teams would finish on six points, making goal difference and tie-breakers crucial.
- A first-place finish in the group would help avoid another group winner in the quarter-finals, offering a potentially easier path forward.
- The match kicks off at 9 p.m. West African time at the Stade Olympique de Rabat and will be broadcast live on AfroSport, SuperSport, and CAF TV.
- Nigeria are aiming for a record-extending 10th continental title as defending champions.
