Egypt Beats DR Congo and Reach Last 16 of The Cup

Cairo – Masaader News

Egypt beated Congo with 2-0 to move into the last 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations. Mohamed Salah made one and scored one, according to BBC.

Egypt went ahead when Salah’s cross was met by Aston Villa’s Ahmed Elmohamady, who finished at the second attempt.

Liverpool forward Salah then added a second with a powerful strike when surrounded by two DR Congo players after a fine run from Trezeguet.

Egypt had begun their campaign with a 1-0 win over Zimbabwe and will go through as group winners if they avoid defeat against second-placed Uganda on Sunday.
