Shocking numbers for the Egyptian national team against Ethiopia .. “a scandalous run”!

The Egyptian national football team presented a disastrous first half against Ethiopia in the match that brought the two teams together, today, Thursday, in the African Nations qualifiers, as the host team advanced with two clean goals, and the referee canceled a third goal for him while a ball hit the post, amid an Egyptian state of astonishment in front of the “Pharaohs” situation. In the absence of Liverpool star Mohamed Salah!


The Egyptian public poured out its anger on the new Egyptian coach, Ehab Galal, and the players, and held them responsible for the lackluster performance and poor level that gave the Ethiopian team the opportunity to appear as if it were the Brazilian samba.


The first half of the match revealed shocking numbers, after the Egyptian team appeared lost in spirit, color, and shape, and was tactically lost. The Egyptians did not shoot any ball on the goal. On the other hand, the Ethiopians shot nine times, four of them between the crossbar and the uprights, and they almost scored completely alone had it not been for goalkeeper Mohamed Abu Jabal.

The Ethiopian national team possessed the ball by 51% (49% for Egypt), and its passes amounted to 229 passes (206 for Egypt), one corner for Ethiopia (no corners for Egypt).
