What an incredible outcome in Group B! Four of the eight goals scored in the last two matches, which ended with the same score (2-2), were scored in added time. And destinies then completely changed. First that of Egypt from Mohamed Salah, who will return to treat his hamstring in Liverpool and exploded with joy from the bench. Because the Pharaoh can hope to play again in this CAN. His selection, at his worst after the opening score, by Gilson Tavares (45th + 1, 0-1), from Cape Verde (already qualified and assured of being first) was able to overthrow him, thanks to Mahmoud Trezeguet ( 51st, 1-1) and Mostafa Mohamed (90th+2, 2-1).
A vain double of penalties from Jordan Ayew…
Then the equalizer snatched by Bryan Teixeira (90th + 9, 2-2) did not prevent them from qualifying for the eighth, despite three draws in as many matches. Because Ghana, which had until then managed its match against Mozambique perfectly, leading 2-0 thanks to a double of penalties from Jordan Ayew (15th, 70th) collapsed in an inexplicable way in the final moments, on a penalty, again, from Geny Catamo (90th+1, 2-1) and an angry header from Reinildo from a corner (90th+4, 2-2).
