Fredy delivered a delightful set-piece against the post as Angola and Egypt played out a draw.
Anfield forward Mohamed Salah and Manchester City striker Omar Marmoush remained unused substitutes as Group B winners Egypt were held to a draw with Angola at the Afcon 2025.
The record winners, having already secured top spot, fielded an completely rotated starting XI and lacked a clinical finish in Agadir.
Angola, who needed a victory to keep their hopes alive, will now endure an anxious period to see if their two points is sufficient 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 pools, all having three points.
Match Key Moments
Winger Fredy rattled the woodwork for Angola shortly after the second half, while Egypt's substitute – one of three halftime changes by the Pharaohs – stung goalkeeper Hugo Marques' palms with a shot from inside the box.
Salah and Marmoush had previously found the net in comeback wins over Zimbabwe and South Africa, respectively.
Egypt will stay in Agadir to meet a third-placed team next Monday, with their opponents to be determined after the group stage finishes on Wednesday.
In the other Group B closer, South Africa's victory over Zimbabwe sent Bafana Bafana into the next round, leaving Angola on the outside looking in.
Egypt Miss Salah and Marmoush Presence
Mohamed Salah watched Egypt fail to score in an Afcon match for the first occasion since the 2021 tournament decider.
With top spot wrapped up, Egypt coach Hossam Hassan likely expected a more impressive display from his second string.
Mostafa Mohamed, who scored four goals at the 2023 finals, set up an early chance for Hossam Abdelmaguid, but the defender looped his header over the target.
Angola, making seven changes themselves, almost went ahead when Chico Banza linked up with Mabululu before dragging a shot wide.
The first half passed without a shot on target, though Fredy caused goalkeeper Mostafa Shobeir into action with a thunderous long-range strike.
The Angolan captain was the likeliest source, seeing a set-piece beat the goalkeeper but clatter against the woodwork.
At the other end, Salah Mohsen was stunned after almost tapping 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, ensuring the match ended goalless.
For Angola, last-eight participants in 2023, their inconsistent performances in Morocco will raise questions about their mid-tournament coaching decision.
