The Ivorian attackers were irritated with the Egyptian goalie.
He made a reaction stop on an acrobatic return from Ibrahim Sangaré in the first half. After that, he was extremely wary of a shot and then a header from Sébastien Haller.
Just before the end of regulation time, Egypt’s last bulwark produced a vital double save against Wilfried Zaha.
Unfortunately, he leaves shortly after this action due to injury and is replaced by Mohamed Abou Gabal, who impressively stopped a goal-bound attempt.
Despite a fright when Marmoush hit the bar on a terrible rise, the Ivorian goalie eventually proved himself untouchable.
He deflected all of Mohamed Salah’s shots in particular (except the shot on goal). In extra time, he was extremely alert, fending off a long shot from Sayed Zizo with his hands.
He was, unfortunately, ineffective in the penalty shootout.
He has much too little said in his team’s game. Neither offensively nor defensively, he did not stand out.
The previous Niçois was a disappointment due to his haphazard decisions. At the 72nd minute, he was replaced.
Aside from a shot against the crossbar in the first half, the Egyptian did not make an impression.
He was not as well-known as Mohamed Salah and Mostafa Mohamed, his attacking teammates.
At the start of extra time, Mohamed Sherif came in to replace him.
