Egypt battle back against Morocco to reach semi-finals
Trezeguet's extra-time goal earned Egypt a semi-final spot at the Africa Cup of Nations as they came from a goal down to beat Morocco 2-1. Mohamed Salah's first goal of the tournament cancelled out Sofiane Boufal's early penalty opener for Morocco, with the Liverpool forward setting up Trezeguet for the goal which saw The Pharaoahs advance to the last four. Morocco went in front when Boufal coolly converted from the spot after a VAR check confirmed that Ayman Ashraf had fouled Achraf Hakimi in the area.
