It has become certain that the technical staff of the Egyptian national team will make an adjustment to the composition of the offensive line of the Egyptian national team in the quarter-final match, after the absence of Mahmoud Trezeguet The left winger of the national team left the match after the injury he suffered in the match between Egypt and Benin yesterday.
Mahmoud Trezeguet suffered a torn ankle ligament while participating with the national team yesterday in the Benin match, an injury that requires at least approximately two weeks to recover from.
The Egyptian national team’s technical staff is considering relying on Omar Marmoush in the left wing position, with Mostafa Mohamed being pushed into the outright striker position in the national team’s starting lineup for next Saturday’s match, which will bring him together with one of the Côte d’Ivoire or Burkina Faso teams.
Hossam Hassan relied on Omar Marmoush in the striker position yesterday against Benin, and this was repeated in the first and second round matches in the group stage against the Zimbabwean and South African teams.
Côte d’Ivoire and Burkina Faso will meet at nine o’clock this evening in the last round of 16 matches of the African Nations Championship, and the winner of this confrontation qualifies to meet the Egyptian national team in the quarter-finals.
