What is at stake in Senegal vs. Egypt?

This semi-final is a repeat of the 2022 AFCON final that saw Senegal win 5-4 on penalties, and Egypt will be looking to exact revenge this week.

The headlines for the contest will surely revolve around the showdown between former Liverpool winger Sadio Mane and current Reds winger Mohamed Salah, both of whom are aiming to lead their nations to glory.

Salah in particular will be desperate to get his hands on the trophy in order to add to his legacy, having lost out in two finals already with the Pharaohs.

With that in mind, the 33-year-old Egypt star will head into this game full of confidence after assisting his side's second and scoring what turned out to be the winner against defending champions Ivory Coast on Saturday.
