EGY vs SA Team News

Egypt

• Egypt have been rewarded for their consistency and finishing on top of their group and thereby getting an opponent like South Africa in the Round of 16. However, stranger things have happened in the knockout stages and Egypt will take this game very very seriously
• The striker Ahmed Hassan is out and is therefore not an option for the coach. Tarek Hamed and Mahmoud Alaa are most likely to return to the starting XI after they were not there for the last match.
• The rest of the team is fit and available and therefore Egypt start as a strong team against South Africa. With the likes of Mohommad Salah leading the line, Egypt are a capable team and should clinch this game

 South Africa

• South Africa have lost 2 of the 3 games they played and in all the three games they have shuffled around with their squad a lot which makes it difficult to predict the starting 11 they would be going ahead with..
• Attacking player Themba Zwane is out of this game due to a suspension and is likely to be replaced by Sibusiso Vilakazi in the team. The defencive midfielder Dean Furman is also out with Injury
• They are likely to play a 4-3-1-2 formation with Mothiba and Vilakazi leading the attack while Tau playing behind the two strikers and feeding them. .

Mohd Salah

The  Egyption King as he is called is expected to come into his own in this phase of the tournament, He has already scored two goals in this tournament.

Percy Tau

Although he hasn’t come into his own in this tournament, his quality can not be questioned with his performances in Ligue 1 where he has scored heavily for  his side Strasbourg .
