Match 03

Egypt vs Mozambique 2:2

FACTS

Mohamed Salah's injury-time penalty spared Egypt's blushes against Mozambique in their Group B opener at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations. A regulation victory looked on the cards when Mostafa Mohamed put the Pharaohs ahead after just 89 seconds.

Quickfire second-half goals from Witi and Clesio gave the Mambas hope of recording a first-ever Afcon win. But their dreams were dashed at the death when Domingos Macandza caught Mohamed, and Salah salvaged a draw.
