Egypt need some magic from Mohamed Salah in the second half.

They've got the right man for the job though. As it's half-time, sit back and enjoy some of Salah's best Premier League goals.

Earlier this season he overtook Didier Drogba as the African player who had scored the most Premier League goals.

Including these beauties...

It's Morocco who lead at the break, thanks to Sofiane Boufal's sixth-minute penalty, which was awarded after a video assistant referee review with on-pitch official Maguette Ndiaye then changing his mind after seeing it on a pitchside monitor.

Egypt have 45 minutes to save themselves, and need to offer more after the break.

PiletjiSebola: The Egyptians are losing focus and concentration. Especially when referee decisions are against them in favour of the Moroccans.

Mohamed Salah remains on corner duty, maybe it'd be better to have him in the box and let someone else take them. His latest effort is gathered by Yassine Bounou, above his head in a packed penalty area.

Good solid, confident keeping from the Moroccan number one.

Morocco have had just the one shot on target, and they're the ones leading. But Egypt themselves have only had two. Mohamed Salah has so far been kept quiet by the Moroccan defence.

ThePenaltyHasKilledFootball: Egyptians gonna get at least one red card soon. Yelling into the face of the ref, should be off already.

Paris St-Germain man Achraf Hakimi takes the free-kick just outside the penalty area, he flights it over the wall but it is just wide of the Egypt goal.

It is not just Carlos Queiroz who is unhappy with the officiating - someone who looks like he is part of the Egypt delegation in the stands has just come up to where the BBC World Service commentators are shouting and banging their table.

A security guards persuades him to stop interrupting the live broadcast.

Arsenal's Mohamed Elneny concedes a foul and rather unwisely argues right in the face of referee Maguette Ndiaye.

Egypt a goal down, so the last thing they need is to go a man down due to a lack of self-control.

Luckily for Elneny, he doesn't talk himself into trouble.

Egypt coach Carlos Queiroz seems to be treading a fine line here. First the match referee spoke to him about what he is shouting from the touchline.

He then left his own technical area and ended up near or in the Morocco one with the fourth official having to persuade him to return the Egypt bench.

The stadium is still only about a third full - but those in here are making a lot of noise - the ubiquitous vuvuzela to the fore of course.

Definitely more Egypt fans in here than anything else being led by a man with a large drum.

There is also a band playing music and dancing as provided by one of the tournament sponsors to try and liven up the atmosphere.

Egypt have a strike at goal from Ayman Ashraf, the man who conceded the penalty, from 25 yards out.

Yassine Bounou in the Morocco goal dives to his left and pushes it away two-handed, although he may have been able to have held on to it.

But, nevertheless, it stays out and that's the main thing. Better from Egypt though.

Egypt get a free-kick 35 yards out but it is deflected well over the top.

Mohamed Salah's corner is into a good area, but there is no-one running in to get on the end of it.

Egypt are the most successful nation in the history of the Africa Cup of Nations, winning it on seven occasions, most recently in 2010.

Morocco have also lifted the trophy, with their solitary success coming back in 1976.

Sofiane Boufal already has one goal and is hunting another as he strikes at goal from the edge of the penalty area, but it is deflected behind off Egypt defender Mohamed Abdelmonem.

Bouffal is found at the back post from the deep corner, but his volley at goal is inadvertently charged down by team-mate Munir El Haddadi.

What have Egypt got in return? Mohamed Salah swings in a corner from the right but Yassine Bounou in the Morocco goal shows some confidence, coming off his line to punch it clear and clear the danger.

Sitting just behind where the VAR screen is in the stadium and we knew the ref was going to be called before he did. We saw the man come out to switch on the VAR monitor before the referee was asked to watch it.

Ayman Ashraf, recalled into the Egypt side, does indeed concede a penalty. He wipes out the legs of Achraf Hakimi with a mis-timed sliding challenge.
