The face of the Pharaohs and the Atlas Lions will take place at 7 pm next Sunday, Abu Dhabi time, at Ahmed Ahidgo Stadium, in Yaounde.
What does history say?
History is clearly biased towards Morocco in direct confrontations with the Pharaohs, as the team that won the most African Nations Cup has never won against its Moroccan brother only 3 times.
Morocco beat Egypt 13 times, compared to only 3 for the Pharaohs, and attended the draw 11 times, which is what is enough to establish the so-called Moroccan knot in Egyptian football at the level of the first team.
But Egypt broke the knot in the last confrontation between the two teams in 2017, in the quarter-finals of the African Nations Cup, and won with a clean goal to achieve the first victory over Morocco since 1986.
Egypt’s victory made the numbers game turn against Morocco, as the last victory of the Atlas Lions against the Pharaohs dates back to 2001 in the World Cup qualifiers, when the Lions beat Mahmoud El Gohary in their stadium with a clean goal.
As for Morocco’s last victory over Egypt in the African Nations, it goes back to the 1998 Burkina Faso Championship in which the Pharaohs were crowned after losing in the group stage with a clean goal against the Lions. Meet in the 2017 championship.
the best in the world
Many believe that Achraf Hakimi is the best right-back in the world, which was confirmed by French star Kylian Mbappe, his colleague at Paris Saint-Germain.
Mbappe wrote on Twitter, after Ashraf Hakimi’s goal in Malawi in the final price of the African Nations, that the Moroccan full-back is the best in the world.
At the same time, many football fans in the world view Mohamed Salah as the best in the world at the moment.
Salah won the third place in the FIFA “The Best” award for the best player in the world, and finished seventh in the “Ballon d’Or” award from France Football.
Although Salah played as a right wing player who turns into the depth of the field during the match, and Ashraf Hakimi played on the opposite side of Salah as a right back, the chances of confronting them on the field will be strong in many situations.
