Egypt repeat an unwanted record that has stood since 2010

In the Africa Cup of Nations semi-final, Egypt face Senegal, and in the first half the Egyptians repeated an unwanted record.

Details: In the first half, Egypt’s players failed to register a single shot at goal—neither on target nor off target. According to Opta, such a situation has occurred for the first time in 33 matches at the Africa Cup of Nations. The last time this happened was in 2010.

We previously reported that Koulibaly would have missed the next match anyway after receiving a yellow card in the game against Egypt. However, he is now also unable to help his team in this match.

Reminder: In the 40th minute, Mohamed Salah committed a foul on Sadio Mané, and the reaction from the players and coaching staff was immediate.
