Austine Jay Jay Okocha, a Nigerian football star, has predicted Senegal to win the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
In the 2021 edition of the binary competition, the Taranga Lions will face the Egyptian Pharaohs on Sunday.
The Pharaohs advanced to the final after defeating Cameroon 3-1 in a penalty shootout, while Senegal breezed through Burkina Faso in an earlier semi-final on Wednesday.
“They’ve done well; you’re not the best on the continent for nothing,” Okocha told Supersports ahead of Sunday’s final.
“They’ve shown it; they were finalists in the previous edition as well, so I expect them to be looking forward to going one step further this time, but it won’t be easy.”
Cameroon and Burkina Faso, meanwhile, will compete for third place on Saturday.
