"Senegal secured a 1-0 win over Egypt to secure their place in the Africa Cup of Nations final. The opening minutes in Tangier were scrappy, with both sides contesting the ball and dominance in the game. Early fouls from Omar Marmoush and Idrissa Gana Gueye set the tone, while Senegal looked to use the movement of Nicolas Jackson and Sadio Mane to stretch Egypt's defensive line."
"Kalidou Koulibaly required treatment on two separate occasions following heavy challenges, eventually leaving the pitch in the 23rd minute. He was replaced by Mamadou Sarr, forcing an early reshuffle in Senegal's defence. Nicolas Jackson and Hossam Abdelmaguid also received treatment after a collision. Senegal continued to probe from range, with Jackson firing over after being set up by Mane in the 19th minute."

Senegal maintained territorial pressure with shots from Jackson and Pape Gueye, while Egypt's attacks were sporadic and delivery into the box lacked consistency.
