00:09Hello everybody, I'm Mohamed Elashi.
00:11And I'm Anika Yala.
00:12Welcome to Football Now, AFCON Special.
00:15AFCON 2025 heads towards its finale.
00:18The third place match is on with the final fest approaching.
00:22But before we dive into that match,
00:24Ana, what's been catching your eye around town lately?
00:26AFCON is not just about the games.
00:28It's a celebration of culture too.
00:32In Rabat, I met Miriam Imich,
00:34a Moroccan artist and the founder of this gallery.
00:37Her gallery supports Moroccan, African and international artists,
00:41telling stories about culture and shared emotions, just like football.
00:46So we can see here an artwork of Yann Haswan,
00:50who is working on the aura of the persons, of the countries.
00:56The butterflies use the colors of different national flags.
01:00From galleries to the streets, the city is alive with energy.
01:04And speaking of the tournament, the third place match is up next.
01:07Egypt and Nigeria head to head in Casablanca for Bronx.
01:11I feel happy.
01:16I mean, we were supposed to win this match earlier, but again,
01:19we couldn't do it because we denied a goal.
01:21It was obviously a goal, but we were denied that.
01:23And again, to show how good we were in this match,
01:26we were able to go on to win two penalty shootouts.
01:28And nonetheless, Nigeria came out third in this tournament,
01:31and it's a good one, it's a plus.
01:32There you go, Walena!
01:34For our people to save Salas Renati,
01:38that's the greatest achievement in this half-course.
01:41And then we are hoping that Poloko will win the final.
01:45Congratulations!
01:46Thank you. Thank you.
01:48Nigeria wins bronze.
01:50Absolutely. The Superlegals have had a fantastic tournament.
01:54But Mo Salah and Co finish the tournament empty-handed.
01:57One standout trend, all four semi-finalists,
02:00Morocco, Senegal, Egypt and Nigeria, are coached by national coaches.
02:05That's a strong sign of how the game is developing on the tournament.
02:09FIFA's Chief of Global Football Development, Arsene Wenger,
02:13visited the AFCON 2025 Technical Study Group,
02:16where experts analyzed the tournament.
02:19I was impressed by the level of the coaches.
02:22It shows that there is no gap anymore,
02:25and that information today in modern sport travels very quickly,
02:30and that everybody is at the top level,
02:32and the marginal differences are very small.
02:37The teams really pushed each other this tournament.
02:40Definitely, and the final is shaping up to be something special.
02:43It's all calming down to this.
02:45Who will lift the trophy? Morocco or Senegal?
02:48We'll be right here to bring you all the action from the final.
