A historic title for Senegal or an eighth-place finish for Egypt's top scorer?
We will get the answer tonight (Sunday) at the Olamba Bayona Stadium, the capital of Cameroon, with two Liverpool stars - Sadio Mane on the one hand (three goals and cooking so far) and Muhammad Salah on the other (two goals and cooking) - leading their teams to the African Championship final.
Elio Sisa, who missed the crucial penalty in the 2002 final and was the coach in the last final, added Ismaila Sar, a Watford winger who started playing only in the quarter-finals and has already contributed a goal and a brace.
Egypt is again missing Akram Tawfiq, who was injured in the opening game and the brakeman Ahmad Hagazi was also absent, after missing the semi-final due to the injury from the game against Morocco.

Senegal, who scored just one goal in the home leg (and also from Mana's penalty in extra time against Zimbabwe) put up a gear in the deciding stages with three wins by a fixed margin of two goals - 0: 2 over Cape Verde and then 1: 3 over Equatorial Guinea and Burkina Faso.
Now the Taranga Lions want to take advantage of their diverse squad, certainly the best in the tournament, to win the continental title for the first time after losses in the last final (1: 0 to Algeria) and the 2002 final (3: 2 on penalties to Cameroon).
Egypt, on the other hand, needed a penalty shootout in the quarterfinals against Ivory Coast and also in the semifinals against Cameroon, when in the middle they defeated Morocco 1: 2 in overtime in the quarterfinals.
Will we not get a decision in 90 minutes again?
The Pharaohs won the continental title most recently in 2010 and Salah was a partner in the final loss in 2017, so he too is looking for a correction like Mana and mostly a seal that he is the greatest Egyptian player of all time.
