Egypt Rest Mohamed Salah as The Palancas Negras on Brink of Afcon Exit.
Fredy delivered a superb free-kick against the post as Angola and Egypt played out a draw.
Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah and Manchester City counterpart Omar Marmoush remained unused substitutes as the group leaders Egypt were held to a stalemate with Angola at the Afcon 2025.
The record winners, having clinched top spot, deployed an entirely changed starting XI and were missing a clinical finish in the Moroccan city.
Angola, who needed a victory to keep their hopes alive, will now face a nervous wait to see if their solitary draw is enough to advance for the knockout stage as one of the highest-ranked third-place teams.
Several other nations are already guaranteed at least third place in their pools, all boasting three points.
Match Key Moments
Attacker Fredy rattled the outside of a post for Angola shortly after the second half, while Zizo – one of three players introduced by the Pharaohs – stung goalkeeper Hugo Marques' fingertips with a effort from inside the box.
Salah and Marmoush had scored earlier in the tournament in victories over Zimbabwe and South Africa, respectively.
Egypt will stay in Agadir to meet a third-placed team next Monday, with their next rival to be determined after the preliminary round concludes on Wednesday.
In the simultaneous Group B finale, South Africa's 3-2 win over Zimbabwe sent Bafana Bafana into the next round, putting Angola in a precarious position.
Egypt Miss Star Power Absence
Mohamed Salah watched Egypt fail to score in an Afcon match for the first occasion since the 2021 tournament decider.
With top spot secured, Egypt coach Hossam Hassan might have hoped for a more impressive display from his rotated side.
Mostafa Mohamed, who scored four goals at the 2023 finals, created an early chance for Hossam Abdelmaguid, but the centre-back looped his header wide of the target.
Angola, having made seven changes themselves, almost went ahead when Chico Banza linked up with Mabululu before dragging a shot past the post.
The first half passed without a shot on target, although Fredy caused goalkeeper Mostafa Shobeir into a save with a powerful long-range strike.
The Palancas Negras skipper remained the likeliest threat, watching a free-kick beat the goalkeeper but clatter against the crossbar.
At the other end, Salah Mohsen was left in disbelief after nearly prodding in a cross, only for the goal to be ruled offside.
Late efforts from M'Bala Nzola and Hamdi Fathy failed to break the deadlock, leaving the match finished scoreless.
For Angola, last-eight participants in 2023, their disjointed performances in Morocco will lead to scrutiny about their recent coaching decision.
