While Egypt beat neighbors, Morocco, to reach this stage, Cameroon has gone unbeaten in the tournament, defeating Equatorial Guinea in the quarter-finals.
“Egypt vs Cameroon will be an amazing game, Cameroon are hosts, they have that advantage, but as you know, Egypt has a very strong team as well,” Peseiro was quoted by Kingfut.com.
“The team that makes fewer mistakes will win the game. I hope Egypt can put on a great show, like the one they put on in the quarter-finals.”
He went on to point out that the Pharaohs have an organized team with their coach Carlos Queiroz doing a great job.
“When you have a superstar like Mohamed Salah on your team, you have to talk to him, he should be your way to establish a connection with the other players, especially when he’s the national team captain.”
Senegal has already booked their place in the final after beating Burkina Faso 3-1 in the first semi-final of the tournament.
