Egypt vs Democratic Rep Congo
Host, Egypt will face RD Congo in the second match of the Africa Cup of Group A. Egypt has the opportunity to secure tickets for the 2019 African Cup quarterfinal if you can win in this match.
This match will be an important match for Egypt. If Egypt wins success, they will be declared qualified for the next round. Thus, the victory will be the destination of Egypt later. Facing RD Congo should be an easy match for Egypt. The reason, they have very positive capital in the previous match, where they successfully beat Zimbabwe with a score of 1-0.
As the host and one of the most successful teams at the African Cup, of course no one doubts the quality of Egypt. However, if you look at their first match, Egypt is not quite convincing considering Egypt is only able to win narrowly over the non-seeded team, Zimbabwe. Effectiveness became an Egyptian problem in the match. The result was also the result that could make Mohamed Salah and his friends unworthy to welcome the second match against RD Congo.
Conversely, RD Congo which lost in the first match was able to show a record that could not be considered bad. They were able to master the ball more dominant than Uganda who won 2-0. However, just like Egypt, effectiveness has not been seen in the game of Yannick Bolasie and his friends in the match.
The defeat of Zimbabwe forced RD Congo to rise and win in this second match. However, facing Egypt clearly will be very difficult for RD Congo. In addition to losing about the quality, RD Congo must also face the noisy Egyptian supporters who will throng the Cairo International Stadium later.
