[Kera]

The Egyptian national football team became the first team to proceed to the second round of the Afcon 2025 winning against South Africa. The Egyptians had a red card and played with 10 men for most parts of the game.

Can they win it?

How can a supposed giant of African football lose a match to a team that played 10 men since first half?

Egypt’s qualification to the second round of Afcon 2025 after beating South Africa is a strong signal of their determination. Playing with 10 men for most of the match and still securing victory shows resilience, tactical discipline, and mental strength. These qualities are often what separate champions from contenders. Historically, Egypt has been one of the most successful teams in African football, and that tradition of winning mentality continues to shine. Can they win the tournament? It’s certainly within reach, but consistency will be key. They must avoid further disciplinary issues, manage fatigue, and maintain focus against tougher opponents like Nigeria, Senegal, or Morocco. Their attacking talent combined with defensive organization gives them a balanced squad capable of handling pressure. If they replicate the fighting spirit shown against South Africa, Egypt has every chance to lift the trophy once again and reaffirm their dominance in African football.

Egypt is the record winner of the AFCON and this edition is a chance for Salah to redeem himself from recent criticisms
