Where to Watch the Morocco vs Egypt U17 AFCON Match
The highly anticipated match between Morocco and Egypt is set to take place on Tuesday, marking the third and final day of the group stage in the U17 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). This exciting clash will be held at the Mohammed VI Football Complex (Field 8) in Salé, with kickoff scheduled for 21:00 French time or 20:00 Moroccan time. Fans eager to catch every moment of the action can tune in live on CAF TV, which is conveniently accessible via YouTube.
Morocco Aiming for a Third Consecutive Quarter-Final Appearance
As the tournament progresses, Morocco stands as co-leaders in Group A alongside Egypt, and the team is in a strong position to secure their place in the quarter-finals for the third consecutive time, following their success in 2023 and 2025. Remarkably, a draw in this match would be sufficient for the Moroccan squad to advance. Additionally, if Tunisia and Ethiopia draw in their match, Morocco would qualify regardless of the outcome against the Pharaohs.
This will mark the first encounter between Morocco and Egypt in the U17 AFCON, although both teams are no strangers to each other, having faced off frequently in qualification tournaments under the North African Football Union (UNAF). In their last two meetings, Morocco emerged victorious, clinching a significant 5-1 win in November 2024 and a close 2-1 win in March of the current year. As anticipation builds for this critical match, fans are hopeful that Morocco can continue their strong performance and make it to the next round.
