More like it from Mohamed Salah as he forces a good save from Ley Matampi with a fine powerful 25-yard free-kick.

DR Congo's Merveille Bokadi is booked for fouling Trezeguet. Free-kick in good range.

DR Congo wouldn't be out even if they lose their opening two games. With four third-placed teams qualifying, three points can still take you through.

An Egypt win would take them into the last 16.
The Pharaohs have reached the final of every Africa Cup of Nations they have qualified for since 2004.
They won three years in a row - 2006, 2008 and 2010 - then failed to qualify for the next three and lost the 2017 final to Cameroon.
GOAL - Egypt 1-0 DR Congopublished at 25 mins
Ahmed Elmohamady
We have lift-off. Mohamed Salah takes a short corner, plays a one-two and then crosses the ball into the box.
It causes a bit of pinball, before landing to Ahmed Elmohamady, who takes a touch with his left foot and pokes it home with the outside of his right foot.

Corner to Egypt as Aston Villa's Ahmed Elmohamady has a cross blocked. Best moment of the past five minutes.

Mohamed Elneny finds Mohamed Salah, who shows far too much of the ball to a defender and then goes down in the box but the referee isn't interested. Salah hasn't looked his usual self so far.

it's been a while since anything happened in Cairo. On the pitch anyway.

DR Congo have had four shots to Egypt's one so far - and the only one on target.

Both sides are coughing up possession a fair bit at the moment. Wolfsburg defender Marcel Tisserand almost gifts the ball to Mohamed Salah but gets away with it.

Got to say I love DR Congo's jerseys being made by an Irish sportswear company who usually make Gaelic football and hurling kits.
Get DR Congo in next year's All Ireland Championships.

Another corner to DR Congo - Tresor Mputu takes it, Jonathan Bolingi flicks it on and Marcel Tisserand blasts it off the crossbar, under pressure from a defender, from six yards out.
The referee blows the whistle for a free-kick, but it's not clear if the goal would have stood or a foul was committed immediately afterwards.

Corner to DR Congo now. The referee stops some pushing and shoving in the box. But the corner is headed out for a throw-in.

Unfortunately 46-year-old Egypt keeper Essam El Hadary retired from international football last summer.
Although he still managed 18 club appearances last season.

End to end. Now former Villarreal striker Cedric Bakambu, who now plays in China, speeds down the right but shoots into the side netting for DR Congo.

A big chance now for Egypt and Mohamed Salah. He runs onto a long ball forward, takes a touch and then his shot from the edge of the box is blocked out for a corner. You wouldn't have expected him to give the defender a chance.
