Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Egypt kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' It looks surprising Belgium does not make any changes. Thomas Meunier has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Belgium that had 118 games and scored 39 goals.
  • 13' Egypt receives a card for a hard tackle on 13.
  • 14' Timothy Castagne is having his name booked by the referee on 14.
  • 19' Emam Ashour puts Egypt on the lead.
  • 24' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 24 minutes.
  • 29' Egypt seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 34' It’s gonna be a card for Ahmed El Fotouh.
  • 39' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 44' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 49' Oufa Shobeir has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 3 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 54' Egypt is showing some good football. However, Egypt are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 59' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 64' It looks like no one’s ball. Belgium is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 66' What a strike from Mohamed Hany! The score is 0-2.
  • 71' Belgium is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 75' That looks like a foul for a card for Maxim De Cuyper.
  • 80' Supporters expect more eagerness from Marwan Attia, as he is very good at scoring at Lumen Field with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 85' Egypt started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 85.
  • 90' It’s high time Hossam Hassan made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • The final whistle. It looks like we are having a draw.
