Egypt vs Nigeria: CAN 2025 3rd Place Playoff – Time & TV Channel

The final battle of the disappointed. Beaten respectively by Senegal and Morocco in the semi-finals of the 2025 African Cup of Nations, Egypt and Nigeria will compete this Saturday for third place in the competition. A very important match but still difficult to play after having suffered a terrible disappointment a few days before.

Seven-time winners of the CAN, the Pharaohs must absolutely avoid a second consecutive edition without a medal after being eliminated in the round of 16 in Ivory Coast two years ago. Eliminated from the race to qualify for the 2026 World Cup, the Super Eagles want to save a season that has been unsuccessful so far.

The match for third place in the 2025 African Cup of Nations between Egypt and Nigeria can be followed this Saturday, January 17 at 5 p.m. on BeIN Sports 2 and with live commentary on the Le Parisien website.
