Efan Ekoku
Former Nigeria striker on BBC ThreeHe is leaving the field so easily, you get the feeling it might not be that serious and he might have a chance to play in that third group game. It looked like he was holding his hamstring.

GOAL - Egypt 0-1 Ghanapublished at 45+3 mins
Mohammed Kudus
It gets worse for Egypt!!!
Brilliant goal from Ghana's Mohammed Kudus. He gets the ball outside the box, beats two or three defenders and then leathers a shot into the back of the net.

Not sure what happened there to Mohamed Salah. He sits on the bench and is commiserated by his mates.
SALAH INJUREDpublished at 45+2 mins
Egypt 0-0 Ghana
Mohamed Salah is back on his feet shaking his head to team-mates. The Liverpool star hands the captain's armband over to Ahmed Hegazi and is replaced by Mostafa Fathi.

At least things are happening now. Ghana's Inaki Williams flicks a header on but nobody is on the end of it.

Egypt 0-0 Ghana
Probably Egypt's best moment of the game as Omar Kamal's cross goes over Omar Marmoush's head but Emam Ashour gets the ball and has a weak shot saved by the keeper.

It's like walking football at times. Jordan Ayew is fouled.
YELLOW CARDpublished at 38 mins

We have a yellow card at least as Ghana's Salis Abdul Samed bodychecks Omar Marmoush.

I'd love to be giving you more updates, I really would. There's been one shot so far and it wasn't a good one.

There's a cooling break in the game, aka a drinks break.

Both sides lose the ball in the space of 10 seconds. Frustrating.

It's been a good while since there was any real action in this one. It's bound to come to life though because both teams really need the three points.
