Prediction: 2-0
Sudan
Egypt will look to book their place in the AFCON 2021 last 16 when they take on Sudan at Stade Ahmadou Ahidjo on Wednesday evening. The Pharaohs quickly bounced back from a 1-0 loss to Nigeria, with the team beating Guinea Bissau thanks to Mohamed Salah’s goal. Egypt are one point away from advancing to the Africa Cup of Nations playoffs, but they will surely go for a win in the last group game. Midfielder Akram Tawfik continues to miss out with injury.
The Falcons of Jediane, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a 3-1 loss to Nigeria. Sudan have slim chances of making it to the last 16, and seeing that the Pharaohs are high on spirits following the triumph over Guinea Bissau, anything but a routine home win would be a major surprise. Both Nooh and Musa are pushing for a start for the nominal visitors.
Highlighted Player (Mohamed Salah):
Mohamed Salah is considered one of the best African players. Salah began his senior career at El Mokawloon, scoring 11 goals in 41 league appearances for the club and in 2012 he moved to Europe, signing a four-year deal with Swiss side Basel.
The pacey winger, who is capable of playing as a striker as well was producing outstanding displays for the RotBlau from 2012 to 2014 and, as a result, Chelsea chiefs decided to sign him on 26 January, 2015 for a fee of £11 million. Mohamed Salah, though, failed to impress in the Premier league and one year later he was sent on loan to Fiorentina.
After making 16 league appearances for the Viola in the Serie A, the left-footed winger signed a loan deal with Roma on 6 August, 2015. The Romans made the contract permanent on 3 August, 2016. Speaking of his international career, Salah made his Egypt debut on 3 September, 2011 in a 2-1 loss to Sierra Leone. It has to be noted that he was named Roma’s player of the season (2015/2016).
