Summary

Matchday 1 of 2026 AFCON U17 will see Egypt U17 take on Ethiopia U17 on Wednesday, 13th May 2026 at Mohamed VI Football Complex in Morocco.
The home side, which is a former AFCON U17 champion, will be going head-to-head against a returning Ethiopian side eager to make an impact.
The two sides will also be facing Morocco U17 and Tunisia U17 in the coming days of the tournament.

The exciting action on matchday 1 of the 2026 AFCON U17 pits former champions Egypt U17 against Ethiopia U17 on Wednesday, 13th May 2026, at the Mohamed VI Football Complex in Morocco. The home side last won the tournament back in 1997 and will be keen to crown themselves as champions yet again by the end of the tournament. On the other side, Ethiopia U17 are making their return to the AFCON U-17 for the first time since 2003.

Expectations will be high, especially from Egypt U17, which has produced prodigious talent in the past, like one of the best Liverpool players currently, Mohamed Salah, and Man City star Omar Marmoush. Coach Hussein Abdel Latif will be desperate for his young players to start their campaign with a win ahead of notable games against more challenging teams in Group A.

The two sides have struggled for wins in recent months. It will be an interesting clash to see how Egypt U17 and Ethiopia U17 fare against each other on Wednesday.

While Egypt U17 will be the favourite to score the all-important win against Ethiopia U17, the onus will be on either side to establish dominance from the first whistle. All eyes will be on young Pharaohs like Mohamed Gamal in attack, Ahmed Safwat in midfield, and Alaa Adel in defence as they work towards taking an early advantage in Group A.
