A new asset brings the Egyptians closer to a place in the World Cup. This is because your opponent is second in the group.
Burkina Faso is on four points, just two behind Egypt. An away win puts the visitors at the top of Group A. In the first two rounds, the team drew with Guinea-Bissau and Ethiopia.
Another highlight of the round is the game against Senegal, by Sadio Mané. The team leads Group B of the Qualifiers and hosts the Democratic Republic of Congo.
