The Egyptian team lost the nomination card for the World Cup Qatar 2022, after losing it to Senegal on penalties 3/1 after the end of the original match time and the addition of Senegal with a goal without a response, which is the same result that ended in the first leg in Cairo.

The Pharaohs did not benefit from the Senegalese team's waste of the first and second penalty shootouts, to waste both Mohamed Salah and Zizou as well, and after them Mustafa Mohamed.

The Egyptian team had also lost the African Nations Championship by penalty shootout against the Senegalese team, turning the "Tringa Lions" into a disturbing nightmare in the history of Egyptian football.

The Senegalese fans showed a hostile atmosphere towards the players of the Egyptian national team, before the whistle of the Algerian referee, Mustafa Ghorbal, when the fans carried banners in the stands carrying insulting phrases for the star of the Pharaohs, Mohamed Salah, followed by the booing of whistles at the moment the national anthem of the Arab Republic of Egypt was played.

This atmosphere was reflected in the position of the Egyptian players at the beginning of the match, when the left-back, Ahmed Fattouh, committed an unforgivable mistake, the moment Sadio Mane's cross was removed, to prepare it by mistake to the Senegalese player, Boulay Dia, who did not find it difficult to deposit it into the net.

After the goal, the mistakes made by the Portuguese coach of the Pharaohs, Carlos Queiroz, with regard to the squad first appeared, when he pushed Al-Ahly player, Rami Rabie, despite his absence from appearing with his team in the local and African matches, forcing this player to leave the field with the 36th minute, due to his feeling of fatigue. in the posterior muscle.

Although the performance of the Senegal team declined after the goal, and it had no real attacking fangs, except for two shots, the first shot by Ismaila Sarr, and Mohamed El-Shennawy tackled it, and the second by Namplis Mendy, who crossed the crossbar, but the Egyptian team, was not able to Mendy’s goal threat, for several reasons, most notably, the inability of the trio, Hamdi Fathi, Mohamed Elneny, and Amr Al-Sulayya, to build attacks from the middle of the field, and Mohamed Salah’s surrender to the bilateral supervision imposed on him by Cissé and Coulibaly, and the superiority of right-back, Sable, over the individual attempts of the Egyptian player, Trezeguet, and the Pharaohs had no offensive presence, except through "Al-Mujtahid", Omar Marmoush, who shot one ball from outside the box in the middle of this half, over the crossbar.

The performance of the Egyptian team differed at the beginning of the second half and appeared on more than one occasion, the most dangerous of which was a pass that Trezeguet received while he was in a good position in front of the goal, but Senegalese defender Sable intervened in perfect timing and removed the ball before it threatened goalkeeper Mendy "50".

The efforts of the Pharaohs to equalize were almost lost with the 64th minute when the Senegalese got a fixed kick in an ideal place towards the goal, played by Idrissa Gaye over the crossbar.

The Egyptian team slowly approached the Senegal goal, especially after the changes made by Queiroz, so substitute Zizou missed the opportunity to achieve a goal from a cross he passed to him.

Zizou embarrassed his coach again, as he missed the opportunity for another goal after he dribbled with Sable, and played the final touch into the goal "77".

Ismaila Sarr almost broke the hearts of the Egyptians at a deadly time of the match, when he was alone in the goal of Mohamed El-Shennawy, and deposited the ball to his left next to the post amid the objection of the Pharaohs players because of the infiltration of the Senegalese striker to no avail.

The match was extended for two additional periods, as the Senegalese team bared its fangs in the first five minutes, during which Mohamed El-Shennawy appeared at his best, and he tackled a goal scored by Ismaila Sarr, preserving his country's hopes in the match.
