Despite the win, it was a different night for Liverpool forward Mo Salah who could not produce his magic against Zimbabwe in Egypt. Knowledge Musona had a shot blocked as Zimbabwe attacked. Zimbabwe also nearly got a goal from Zimbabwe’s brightest spark of the night, Khama Billiat, whose effort was however blocked by the Egyptian goal minder in a tricky one-v-one encounter. Egypt maintained the pressure after the break but Hassan and Salah both missed the target. The Zimbabwean shot-stopper, Ariel Sibanda, later went off injured after a rough challenge by Hassan. He was replaced by Chipezeze in the 80th minute. Musona was also replaced by the fast-paced Talent Chawapiwa. Rusike also came replacing Mushekwi in the 87th minute. Egypt tired late on and were almost caught out as Zimbabwe’s Ovidy Karuru shot at Mohamed El-Shenawy from 30 yards. Below are the full-time statistics. Egypt v Zimbabwe Possession: 59%-41% Corner Kicks: 7-2 Yellow Cards: 0-1 Red Cards: 0-0 Offsides: 0-1 Saves: 2-9 Shots (On Goal): 16 (9)-11 (2) Zimbabwe will play Uganda on Wednesday and DR Congo on Sunday.
