We are at the semi-final stage of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) with Egypt, Nigeria, Senegal and tournament hosts Morocco all in the hunt for continental glory. Wednesday's matches serve up a treat too with Senegal facing Egypt at 5pm before Nigeria take on Morocco at 8pm. The former clash is bound to be a tantalising one with the sub-plot of Sadio Mane versus Mohamed Salah once more. 'Nobody, even in Egypt, wants to win this trophy more than me,' Salah said after helping his team beat Ivory Coast in the quarter-finals. That sentiment won't apply on Wednesday as Mane looks for a hat-trick of major international feats over Salah.
