Stream AFCON 2025 Final for free on Channel 4 — Unblock with NordVPN (70% Off)

AFCON 2025 concludes this weekend with one final match, as Senegal and Morocco go head-to-head to decide the champion.

Both sides progressed through tough semi-finals, with Sadio Mané netting the winner for Senegal and Yassine Bounou emerging as the penalty shootout hero for Morocco.

Now they face off, with hosts Morocco eyeing a first tournament triumph since 1976.

It could be a tight, defensive contest: the Lions of Teranga have conceded just two goals, while the Atlas Lions have let in only one.

U.K. residents are in luck, as every game will be streamed for free, including the final on Channel 4’s streaming service.

But what if you’re in the U.S., Canada, Australia, or even visiting Morocco for the tournament? Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered, as NordVPN can help you unlock Channel 4’s free streams from anywhere in the world.
