In a thrilling World Cup qualifier match, both Ghana and Egypt showcased their prowess on the field, leaving fans on the edge of their seats. Mohammed Kudus emerged as the hero for Ghana, scoring both goals, but defensive lapses allowed Egypt's Omar Marmoush and Mostafa Mohamed to level the score twice.

Rollercoaster of Goals

The match kicked off with a setback for Egypt as, star player Mohamed Salah, was forced off the field just before halftime due to a left thigh injury. Despite the setback, Ghana seized the opportunity, and Mohammed Kudus, who had recovered from a hamstring injury, delivered a powerful shot from outside the area.

The second half brought more excitement, with Kudus having another chance. However, Egypt's hopes were momentarily dashed when Mohamed Abdel-Moneam's goal was disallowed for offside after a VAR review.

Omar Marmoush capitalized on a defensive mistake from Iñaki Williams, equalizing for Egypt in the 69th minute. Kudus, undeterred, responded swiftly with a well-placed shot that found the back of the net, restoring Ghana's lead.

In the 72nd minute, another defensive error, this time from Osman Bukari, allowed Mostafa Mohamed to score the equalizer for Egypt. The goal was assisted by the impactful Mahmoud 'Trezeguet’, who came on as a second-half substitute.
