We’re really excited about the AFCON’s first match on Friday, 21st of June, where Egypt will be playing against Zimbabwe. Get your full cheering kit ready; the Egyptian flag, the national team jersey, and a new set of face paint. And of course, get ready for some car honking and fireworks in case we win, or even if we don’t; Egyptians go out and celebrate anyway.

That takes us to a very important point: where will we watch the matches? We all love watching the game with an enthusiastic crowd, sharing a comment here and there with everyone. You know what they say, “happiness is only real when shared”. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of hangout spots around Cairo where you can cheer for the Egyptian team with your family and friends.
