By AFPMore by this AuthorPORT-GENTILSeven-time champions Egypt face Ghana in Port-Gentil on Wednesday looking for the result that will see them join their opponents in qualifying for the Africa Cup of Nations quarter-finals. Meanwhile, a win for Hector Cuper's side would allow them to leapfrog the already-qualified Black Stars and advance as group winners. Elmohamady, of Hull City, played when Egypt beat Ghana 1-0 in the 2010 final in Angola to win a third successive Cup of Nations final. More recently the Black Stars triumphed 6-1 in a World Cup qualifier in October 2013, but Egypt then won 2-0 in a 2018 World Cup qualifier last November. The striker netted the only goal in Saturday's victory against Mali and he has now scored eight times at the Cup of Nations over six consecutive tournaments.
