The Pharaohs Bench Mohamed Salah as The Palancas Negras Face Afcon Exit.
Fredy delivered a delightful free-kick onto the post as the two sides shared a stalemate.
Liverpool star Mohamed Salah and Manchester City striker Omar Marmoush remained unused substitutes as the group leaders Egypt played out a stalemate with Angola at the Afcon 2025.
The seven-time champions, having already secured top spot, deployed an entirely changed starting XI and were missing a cutting edge in the Moroccan city.
Angola, who needed a victory to keep their hopes alive, will now endure an anxious period to see if their two points is enough to qualify for the last 16 as one of the highest-ranked third-place teams.
Benin, Sudan and Mozambique are already guaranteed at least third place in their respective groups, all boasting three points.
Match Highlights
Winger Fredy rattled the woodwork for Angola early in the second half, while Zizo – one of three players introduced by the Pharaohs – tested goalkeeper Hugo Marques' palms with a shot from inside the box.
Salah and Marmoush had scored earlier in the tournament in victories over Zimbabwe and South Africa, in turn.
Egypt will stay in Agadir to meet a third-placed team next Monday, with their opponents to be confirmed after the preliminary round finishes on Wednesday.
In the simultaneous Group B closer, South Africa's victory over Zimbabwe sent Bafana Bafana through automatically, leaving Angola in a precarious position.
Egypt Miss Star Power Absence
Mohamed Salah observed Egypt fail to score in an Afcon match for the first time since the 2021 final.
With top spot secured, Egypt coach Hossam Hassan likely expected a more convincing attacking performance from his second string.
The striker, who netted four goals at the previous tournament, set up an first-half chance for Hossam Abdelmaguid, but the defender directed his header over the target.
Angola, having made seven changes themselves, nearly went ahead when Chico Banza combined with Mabululu before dragging a shot past the post.
The first half passed without a shot on target, although Fredy forced goalkeeper Mostafa Shobeir into action with a powerful long-range attempt.
The Palancas Negras skipper was the likeliest source, seeing a free-kick beat the goalkeeper but crash against the woodwork.
At the other end, Salah Mohsen was left in disbelief after almost prodding in a cross, only for the goal to be ruled offside.
Late attempts from M'Bala Nzola and Hamdi Fathy failed to break the deadlock, leaving the match finished goalless.
For Angola, last-eight participants in 2023, their inconsistent performances in Morocco will lead to scrutiny about their mid-tournament coaching decision.
