It's already semi-final time at this year's AFCON tournament, and this is a huge matchup of some of Africa's greatest teams. If you're joining the tournament late, we have some fantastic news for you: we can show you where to watch AFCON free from anywhere. You're just a few clicks away from today's Senegal vs. Egypt live stream, and the same options will cover all the other games in the tournament, too.

Two former Liverpool teammates meet again and will be key if they want to push their country to the final. Liverpool's Mo Salah has never won AFCON for Egypt in his illustrious career, but has regained his form just at the right time with four goals so far. Senegal's Sadio Mané, currently playing in Saudi Arabia, has scored only once but has three assists. Senegal has generally had the better of Egypt in recent years and remains a slight favorite today.

Free coverage is available on SABC in South Africa or Channel 4 in the UK. If you're not in those countries right now, you'll need a VPN to get around geo-restrictions and enjoy free AFCON live streams. If you're watching in the US, you can access all remaining games for just $5.

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) will digitally simulate your viewing device's location, allowing you to stream free feeds from overseas that you'd otherwise be unable to access. We'll show you how below.

How to watch Senegal vs Egypt live streams for free from anywhere

If you want access to every remaining match of this year's Africa Cup of Nations, we can point you toward two excellent free options in the UK (Channel 4) and South Africa (SABC Sport). If you're outside those countries, you'll need to use a VPN to get around geo-restrictions. We've had no issues accessing either option from overseas via a VPN.

You can push through any blocks with a VPN and start watching once you set its location to South Africa/UK. A VPN virtually changes your devices' location, so apps and websites think you're connecting from servers within those countries, just like the local viewers.

Don't have a VPN? There's a fantastic offer available right now on one of our trusted favorites that we have been using for years for streaming and enhancing our online security. You can pick up NordVPN, save 77% on the usual price, and get three extra months for free. It's the best investment in your sports-watching future if you know you'll want to watch more international sports streams. It's one of the few reliable VPNs with decent servers in South Africa.

If you're unsatisfied with the VPN, a hassle-free 30-day money-back guarantee is available. Want to learn more about the product? Take a look at our detailed NordVPN review.

How to watch Senegal vs Egypt in the UK

Channel 4 has the rights to every AFCON live stream for every game of the tournament, and its online site is the best place to watch most games split across Channel 4, E4, and 4Seven.

The Senegal vs. Egypt live stream will be available to watch on Channel 4's E4 channel in the UK today.

The Channel 4 streaming site will require a VPN if you're viewing outside the UK. You will also need to create a free account and sign in.

How to watch Senegal vs Egypt in the USA

If you want to watch the AFCON competition online in the USA, you'll find it all on the BeIN channels. If you don't have them in your current package, you can get them for a very affordable deal for the entire tournament, as you only need one month of coverage.

For just $5, Sling TV lets you bag its version of a Soccer Pass without signing up for one of the pricey paid base packages.

That's an absolute steal. If you're outside the US and are thinking of diving in via a VPN, just be aware that you'll need a US payment method to pay for it. Get around that, though, and the same VPN we mentioned above will let you stream the channel.

Alternatively, you can use a VPN to access the free options we mentioned earlier in the UK and South Africa.

Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
