Nigerian football legend, Jayjay Okocha, has hinted that Senegal will floor Egypt for the final game in the ongoing African Cup of Nations in Cameroun. The Taranga Lions will on Sunday go for the showdown against the Pharaohs of Egypt in the 2021 edition of the binary tournament. Pharaohs netted the host Cameroonians 3-1 in a penalty shootout to get to the finals while Senegal strolled past Burkina Faso during the earlier semi-finals that were witnessed on Wednesday.


Okocha, while talking to super sports ahead of the scheduled match slated for Sunday said, “They have done well; you are not number one in the continent for nothing,” 

He added, “They have proven it, they were finalists also in the last edition so I think they will be looking forward to going one step better this time around but it’s not going to be easy.” 

Meanwhile, Cameroon and Burkina Faso will clash for third place today, Saturday 5th February 2022.
