Ghana Draw Against Egypt In An Exciting And Suspenseful Game

Egypt showed constancy in the second half of a thrilling 2-2 Africa Cup of Nations draw with Ghana on Thursday, in spite of going behind two times.

The omens looked bad for the disjointed Pharaohs after Mohammed Kudus scored a brilliant goal to put Ghana ahead as Egypt lost Mohamed Salah to injury on the stroke of halftime.

Egypt emerged with a recharged energy in the second half, led by vivacious winger Omar Marmoush, to share respects to Ghana and keep alive their expectations of progressing to the last 16.

Indeed, even with talisman Mohamed Salah off the pitch injured, Egypt retaliated from a goal down, two times, to record a draw with Ghana.

Eintracht Frankfurt winger Marmoush came back in the 69 minutes subsequent to capitalizing on an unfortunate back pass from Ghana’s Iñaki Williams but Egypt’s celebration was immediately cut short, with Kudus striking again two minutes after the fact.

However, Ghana finds itself in a precarious position in the group after Mostafa Mohamed scored Egypt’s second goal in as many games to split the spoils.

Record seven-time champions Egypt, who also drew 2-2 with Mozambique in their first Group B game, have two points from two games and face leaders Cape Verde (three points from one match) on Monday. With just one point, Ghana is at the bottom.

Ghana go into their last group game against Mozambique with expectations of winning to qualify for the next stage of the competition.
