00:00 two teams who had false starts and this 2023 Africa Cup of Nations Egypt
00:09 as we get this game underway Statso of Gabon blows the whistle and we are off
00:19 happy to get the game going a little bit of a steal in the midfield as they push forward this is
00:26 Ghana on the attack and unleashing a shot from distance wasn't a bad effort just tells you what
00:32 this man can do and off on a bit of a wonder you can see the Ghana they mean something they're
00:37 looking for a little bit of space the ball is pushed through it's a great opportunity for Ghana
00:43 oh my word El Genoui does the business there well organized back line at the moment I'm saying that
00:50 they find a bit of space over on the left hand side opportunity here Mamos gets the ball over
00:54 there's no one there but it's a header that's uh takes the ball out for a corner and Mensa
00:59 Cabal cuts inside that's nicely done uh he was by Semenyuk waits for some support or does he
01:10 he's capable of doing so that's a nice 80 humidity and a little bit of wind we don't
01:16 feel the wind around here but I can tell you that the humidity obviously means that they've got to
01:23 get some water inside of you just gives these coaches the chance to talk to their players
01:27 Mohammed but couldn't get his pass that's great work from Kamal tries to get his crossover but
01:48 Kamal Kamal the delivery is great oh it's a beautiful cross and that should have been
01:54 smashed in Mamos doesn't get it there's a great chance it's delivered and it's not
01:59 in the back of the net so for he just uh easily takes it from out short
02:04 oh he just nearly loses possession gets it back the west end man dispossessed and this is dangerous
02:11 this is very dangerous Mo Salah's down the right hand side he's trying to go all alone Mamos
02:16 and I'm not too sure if that was the right decision or do I get sit back and there's a chance for
02:22 Semenyuk to try and oh that's wonderful wonderful play the ball comes down into
02:28 the byline and a chance for a header okay
02:31 that is a concern for Egypt
02:44 he's holding that four minutes of added time in the first half
02:49 he's trying to get back up it's a muscle
02:55 that's when he's got a tap on the shoulder and it looks like he's not gonna be able to continue
03:05 player isn't he still in possession it comes back and uh this is the man you've got to worry about
03:12 oh my word Kudu is a man he's back he's back he's back Mohammed Kudus the skill the panache the shot
03:24 the celebrations
03:28 Ghana are back
03:38 and it's not the perfect timing for Egypt
03:42 they lose their captain
03:48 great battling from Jordan Ayew the balls pulled to as Salis gets the ball to Kudus just look what
03:58 he does one touch two touches three touches and that left footed shot into the corner to be
04:06 such a great goalkeeper in El Shenawi that is absolutely sublime
04:12 and that is why Ghana need him on the pitch
04:19 the disastrous opening half for Egypt down a goal and Mohammed Salah having to be subbed off
04:34 let's get this second half underway and see exactly what unfurls in the next 45 because
04:39 there's so much more drama that's going to take place here for this groupie encounter
04:44 high ball over the top Jordan Ayew with the corner into the penalty box sister
04:53 smashed away onto the roof of the net just knowing the quality of Mahmoud look at her
05:00 guys he's going yeah get it over the top I'll latch on to that high ball over the top and
05:04 there's danger oh it's in the back of there surely there's the goal there's the goal but no
05:10 there is a flag up on the other side and there is an infringement
05:15 and there goes he's being confronted by Pierracho
05:19 Egypt on the attack that's wonderfully done that is and that's a great cross that comes in
05:28 taken well by a four-eight snatched out of the sky and uh Hashim Mero unable to do anything with
05:34 that it comes out to Mahmoud Mahmoud Mahmoud cuts inside a little bit of space puts it on
05:39 his right foot is he going to go for the shot needs to go for the shot maybe does go for the
05:42 shot great save from a four-eight on as Egypt going looking for a goal there ball comes into
05:50 the penalty box unable to get a shot in the pharaohs the pharaohs here they go with Mahmoud
05:56 down the left side looking for support where's Mustafa where's Fatih here he still has him
06:02 Mahmoud to the shot and it goes high a little bit wide not on targets Ghana and they they go
06:10 pushing forward Semenya Semenya is on his own can he get past the man can he find a teammate it's a
06:17 low shot it's a bit of a glass cutter easily dealt with by El Shenoy all to play for going into the
06:24 final round of matches there for group a it's going to be pulsating stuff they're giving the
06:29 ball away oh that's a back pass it's in the back of the net Mahmoud Mahmoud Mahmoud has done it
06:35 Egypt equalize and a bad mistake at the back Rui Vitoria looks content and the Egyptians celebrate
06:47 an equalizer he was on the cusp of something we all saw that but it's not a moment for them to
06:55 appreciate what happened Shambolic the back pass and he will swoosh down in there get the ball and
07:05 bury it Mammouche is super dangerous great goal from the Eintracht Frankfurt man
07:11 [Music]
07:19 [Applause]
07:36 He's the man back in business
07:41 through the traffic into the corner El Shenoy couldn't see it and look at the fans they are
07:49 just jumping with joy and the entire nation of Ghana must be in celebration
07:57 because they've just managed to get the lead back the moment that the pharaohs had equalized
08:05 a harsh blow for Rui Vitoria and a sensational turn around from the black stars and it had to
08:17 be that man just look at this the ball comes back all the way all the way back so Kouros
08:22 look what he does and that's all it was it was just as he was a little bit blinded on Shenoy
08:27 I think he had his defender just in the blocking his view
08:34 although he gets the ball there we'll see from this angle here one little touch with the left
08:38 foot and just look at that yeah he can't see it actually comes off the outside of his leg
08:43 and past El Shenoy couldn't do anything about it
08:47 Abdelmonaim was the defender who unfortunately had the ball come off his leg and look at that
08:56 Ofori celebrates and we have another change because Enaki Williams is going to come off
09:04 got to watch out for that man and he picks it up trying to play the one-two a little bit of a
09:13 misunderstanding but Trezeguet, Trezeguet's got the ball back it's in the back of the van
09:17 this is just madness this is madness we absolutely love it remarkable Mustafa Mohamed
09:27 Mustafa Mohamed scoring an equalizer for Egypt and they're back in business
09:36 I knew there was going to be a bit of drama in this encounter
09:45 I thought now what are you doing here you're running away you're getting dispossessed you
09:50 just don't play in your own penalty box and I think that's what you've got to look at
09:55 Hukari has made the mistake in trying to play in his own and look at that's great attack and
10:01 that's that's what you want from your striker Mustafa Mohamed just getting in front of his
10:06 marker and just it's literally just stabbing it in underneath the legs of Ofori and that's your
10:12 equalizer and I just for the for this for the sake of Mo Salah's injury I hope he's not jumping
10:22 up because he needs to be you know uh repairing that that muscle injury because he'll want to get
10:28 back. Hayu watch on there's the delivery can they get the goal can they get the goal oh my word that
10:35 was super close came over El Shenoui didn't touch it it flew over the job between Egypt and Ghana
10:43 ends two to the first point of the competition for the Black Stars Egypt now sit with two points
10:53 in group B thank you so much for watching until next time I'm Antonio Aquilino
10:58 Arrivederci!
