As part of the Africa Cup semi-final match, the players of the national teams of Cameroon and Egypt will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this confrontation? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this meeting.
Cameroon
The Cameroon national team is the main favorite of the tournament. And indeed, after all, this team outplays all rivals in a row. In the previous round, the Cameroonians were able to defeat the Gambians with a score of 2:0. Interestingly, all 11 goals of the "indomitable lions" at the tournament were scored by 2 players - Vincent Abubakar and Carl Ekambi. Moreover, Ekambi made a double in a duel with the Gambia, and also opened the scoring in the first playoff meeting with the Comoros.
Egypt
The "Pharaohs" at the tournament go round after round, but they do it with a noticeable strain. Interestingly, the team, as a rule, wins with a difference of 1 ball. Of course, the attacking power of the team is built around the star of world football - Mohammed Salah, who, by the way, has scored only 2 goals so far. By the way, in the previous round Egypt passed strong Moroccans, having managed to beat the opponent in a face-to-face meeting only in extra time (2:1).
Statistics and figures:
- Cameroon is the favorite of the meeting;
- Cameroonians won 4 out of 5 meetings;
- Egypt has not lost for 4 matches;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of Cameroon.
Forecast
I think that at this stage the luck of the Egyptian national team will exhaust itself. In my opinion, it is advisable to take the victory of the Cameroonian national team, which is ripe to win a major continental tournament, having in its asset excellent football players who are world-class stars.
