Events
Match Events
- 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Egypt and Uruguay has kicked off!
- 5' Egypt have won 13 goals from 9 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 10' 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.
- 15' Egypt currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 20' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 25' The energy levels are beginning to show. Hector Cuper might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 30' Diego Godin has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 35' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Martin Caceres suffering a number of foals already.
- 40' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Egypt side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 45' With 0 assists to his name this season, Marwan Mohsen is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Uruguay.
- 50' A tactical swap from Egypt — Sam Morsy on, Tarek Hamed off on 50 minutes.
- 55' Abdulla El Said needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 58' The whistle greets Nahitan Nandez as he departs to be replaced by Carlos Sanchez.
- 59' Another substitution for Uruguay to replace Giorgian De Arrascaeta by Cristian Rodriguez on 59 minute.
- 63' A tactical swap from Egypt — Kahraba on, Marwan Mohsen off on 63 minutes.
- 68' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Hector Cuper will be considering his options from the bench.
- 73' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Egypt needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 78' has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 82' The crowd applauds Amr Warda as he leaves the pitch. Ramadan Sobhi steps in for Egypt.
- 87' Uruguay make a change. Matias Vecino trudges off to be replaced by Lucas Torreira on 87 minutes.
- 89' Jose Maria Gimenez doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 90' The referee has no hesitation. Ahmed Hegazy is booked for Egypt — Yellow card on 90.
- It finishes all square. Egypt and Uruguay share the spoils 0-1.
