AFCON 2022 fixtures: Final date, UK kick-off time, match schedule and venue

The Africa Cup of Nations will conclude on Sunday in a final between Senegal and Egypt.

Few could argue against the two teams, each spearheaded by a Liverpool star in Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, making the showdown after strong performances in the knockout rounds.

Hosts Cameroon were defeated by the Pharaohs on Thursday night in a gruelling tie with required a penalty shootout.

Senegal take on the seven-time champions having themselves never won an AFCON crown, but looked in fine form after a 3-1 semi-final win over Burkina Faso in midweek.

The losing semi-finalists faced off for third place on Saturday, with Cameroon coming out on top via a penalty shootout.

Here’s the full fixture schedule, UK kick-off times and venues for the final weekend...

Saturday, February 5

Third place play-off: Burkina Faso 3-3 Cameroon

Sunday, February 6

Final: Senegal vs Egypt, 7pm GMT.
