'Pharaohs' to keep up their confident run

Egypt easily qualified from the group stage of the Africa Cup of Nations. The 1-0 win over Zimbabwe in the opening game was followed by two wins over Congo and Uganda (2-0 in each game). Although their defense wasn't that strong, their performance was satisfying so they deserve to be here and hoping to continue until the end.

South Africa's performance wasn't remarkable in the group stage. That was expected considering their players' talent that is quite low. They suffered two losses to Ivory Coast and Morocco and in the midtime, they registered only a win over Namibia (1-0). However, they secured their place in the knockout stages. South Africa aren't going to make any rotation tonight, they will definitely try to play defensively looking for a counter attack to score. 

Egypt are superior to their opponents and their players have undoubtedly bigger individual talent. With their fans on their side to boost their moral, Egypt will register their 4th consecutive win and qualify to the quarterfinals against a mediocre team. Egypt to win.
