In the early morning of January 31, Beijing time, the African Cup of Nations ended a heavyweight four-round competition, and finally Egypt, with a 0-1 behind, reversed Morocco through extra time 2-1 and successfully advanced to the top four. Both teams are favourites for the tournament, so it's normal for anyone to qualify. But in the early hours of the morning game, the degree of confusion between the two sides can be seen.
First let's look back at the early morning game, the 7000W superstar of Paris created a penalty for Morocco in the 6th minute, the referee determined the result after a VAR penalty, and Bofar took the penalty and opened the prelude to the melee. In the second half, Egypt took advantage of corner kicks to equalize, when the top star of the African Cup of Nations, Salah, stood up, and his empty shots made the two sides 1-1 in 90 minutes.
In the 100th minute of extra time, Salah broke through on the right and passed to the back of the penalty area, and the unguarded Trezeguet wrapped up the goal and successfully helped Egypt achieve a reversal + kill. Relying on the 2 goals scored by the Liverpool star, the African Cup of Nations 7 champions Egypt successfully qualified, and Salah's performance in this game deserved the reputation of "god under the gods".
If you are a fan who has seen the game, you must know the degree of chaos in the early morning game. One of the scenes that best exemplifies the chaos of the game takes place in 76 minutes. Grand Paris 7000W superstar Ashraf was under the bag of 2 people, and his pants were pulled off. Just when the big Paris star wanted to ask for an explanation, he found the wrong person and identified The No. 14 Mustafa as the No. 22 Malmüsh who had removed his pants.
This was the trigger for a conflict between the two sides, and new members of the two teams continued to join the game, including the referee. After the clashes broke out between the two sides, the referee accidentally aimed at Morocco's Munir, who took the initiative to launch a fight, first pushing the player out of the crowd, and then pushing the player in the case of obvious vacancies. When Munir saw the situation, he also covered his face and fell to the ground.
In the end, after a long period of calming down, the referee gave both teams fifty boards, and Ashraf and Mustafa both received a yellow card. Such a moment is just a microcosm of the chaos of the early morning game. At the end of the game, egypt received 4 yellow cards, and they tried their best to win.
This year's Africa Cup of Nations was held in a state of doubt, and many of the situations in the group stage also made fans wonder. For example, there are too few goals, and the referee blows the game in advance, which makes many people complain that this is a bad competition. But in any case, this is a regular intercontinental competition after all, and now that the top 4 have been produced, it remains to be seen who can finally win the championship.
