Ep: 55: AFCON 2025 Semifinal Review - Defensive Strength, Pressure & a Final That Makes Sense

The AFCON 2025 semi-finals delivered tension rather than goals — and in many ways, that tells the story of this tournament. In this episode, I review both semi-finals and place them in the wider context of an AFCON unlike many before it: excellent pitches, cooler weather, and near-perfect conditions that have allowed the strongest, most organised teams to rise to the top. Senegal edged past Egypt in a game defined by defensive discipline and patience, while Morocco needed penalties to overcome Nigeria after dominating possession but struggling to convert control into clear chances. In both matches, the better teams advanced — not through spectacle, but through structure, balance, and mental strength. I also look ahead to a fascinating final between Senegal and Morocco — remarkably their first ever AFCON meeting — and discuss why the numbers, form, and recent history point toward Morocco, while tournament football still leaves the door open for Senegal to strike. With goals hard to come by and margins razor thin, this episode breaks down why AFCON 2025 has become a tournament of control, pressure, and inevitability — and what that means for the final. 🎙️ Available as video and podcast ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Use this RSS Link to never miss an episode in your favorite podcast app: https://anchor.fm/s/f9d49078/podcast/rss You can also find me on YouTube: @MySoccerUniverseFootballTalk Also, check out my main Youtube channel @MySoccerUniverse If you want to hear my takes on the Austrian Bundesliga in general, and my team LASK in particular and understand German, you can subscribe to my other podcast, too: @MeinLASKUniversum or https://anchor.fm/s/107a5b448/podcast... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #afcon2025 #afcon #africancupofnations #morocco #senegal #egypt #nigeria #afconfinal #internationalfootball #footballanalysis #tournamentfootball 00:00 – AFCON 2025 Semi-Finals: Context & Tournament Trends 02:36 – Senegal vs Egypt: Control, Patience & a Narrow Breakthrough 08:57 – Morocco vs Nigeria: Dominance, Defensive Blocks & Penalties 13:38 – Final Preview: Morocco vs Senegal – What the Numbers Say
