On Wednesday, August 12, 2026, the Women's AFCON enters its most intense phase. In Rabat, the last four remaining teams will clash for the two coveted tickets to the final. By reaching the semi-finals, Algeria, Malawi, Morocco, and Cameroon have all secured their places in the upcoming 2027 Women's World Cup.

Algeria vs Malawi: A showdown to make history

The action kicks off at 17:00 GMT at the Rabat Olympic Stadium. On one side, Algeria reaches the semi-finals for the first time after a 2-1 victory over Ivory Coast. The Desert Ladies enter the match brimming with confidence, eager to prove their run is no fluke.

On the other side, Malawi continues to stun the continent. The Scorchers are coming off a 2-1 triumph over Ghana and had already knocked out Nigeria in the group stage. Fueled by passion, they dream of writing a new chapter in their nation's history today.

Both teams, who have never before reached this stage in Women's AFCON, now face each other with the same ambition: to reach the summit.

Morocco vs Cameroon: A test of crowd and experience

At 20:00 GMT in Moulay Hassan Stadium, the atmosphere promises to be electric. Morocco plays at home, relying on the roaring support of their fans, who back the Atlas Lionesses with unmatched fervor. After a 2-1 win over South Africa in the quarter-finals, the hosts are chasing a third consecutive final and their first continental crown.

Cameroon, meanwhile, enter the contest after ousting Nigeria with a 1-0 win over Africa's most decorated side, reigniting the fire in the Lionesses' pride. This is a strong, ambitious team with nothing to lose and everything to win tonight.

At the end of these two battles, we will know the finalists for the 2026 Women's AFCON, while the losers will fight for third place. What is certain: a new queen will be crowned on final night.
