Egypt call for AFCON final to be delayed by a day
After being taken to at least extra-time for the third game running, the Pharaohs want an extra 24 hours to prepare for the final against Senegal.
Egypt’s assistant coach Diaa al-Sayed has called for Sunday’s AFCON final against Senegal to be delayed by 24 hours to give his side more recovery time.
Vincent Aboubakar’s eight goals at Afcon is the second-most at a single Africa Cup of Nations in the tournament’s history
