Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at AT&T Stadium. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Australia and Egypt.
- 5' Australia have won 13 goals from 12 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 10' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 13' Emam Ashour makes no mistake. The score reads 0-1 and Egypt are in front.
- 18' The travelling Egypt supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 23' Mostafa Ziko has been relatively quiet despite scoring 2 goals in his last 9 appearances.
- 28' Aziz Behich is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Australia so far.
- 33' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Hossam Hassan will be considering his options from the bench.
- 38' Oufa Shobeir has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 43' Australia is showing some good football. However, Australia are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 46' A change in the Australia ranks — Jordan Bos exits the field as Kai Trewin enters on 46.
- 51' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Australia needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 55' Mohamed Hany adds to his 2 season tally! Egypt lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
- 60' Over 60 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 65' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Egypt winning 100% of all matches.
- 67' Haissem Hassan is replacing Mostafa Ziko for the Egypt side.
- 72' Mahmoud Saber has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 74' The crowd applauds Nestor Irankunda as he leaves the pitch. Mohamed Toure steps in for Australia.
- 79' It looks like no one’s ball. Egypt is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 80' A tactical swap from Egypt — Trezeguet on, Karim Hafez off on 80 minutes.
- 85' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 90' Egypt are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- Game over. The scoreline of 3-5 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
