Egypt was one of the favourites to win the tournament, so were also the Elephants, but their cohesion was the question mark even if the player material on individual level is perhaps the best one.

So far some updates have to be made. Cote d'Ivoire have been better than expected, Egypt worse, in fact Egypt has been even more a one-man team that thought. Even if the man is Mo Salah Egypt do not deserve much respect with their performances.

One major factor is also that this match takes place in Douala where the pitch is in a horrible condition, and it favours strongly Ivory Coast as they are more straight-forward, and have more individual skill. They have also played here before and earned experience, as well as from winning a similar to Egypt, Algeria.

Egypt do play short passes on the ground, it can not be done here, Ivory Coast have a full and strong with several world class players, and they are almost 50% winners here in my papers.

2-0

埃及是夺冠热门之一，非洲大象也是如此，但他们的凝聚力是个问号，即使个人层面的球员材料可能是最好的。

到目前为止，必须进行一些更新。科特迪瓦比预期的要好，埃及更糟，事实上埃及一直是一个更认为的单人球队。即使这个人是埃及的莫萨拉赫也不值得对他们的表现给予太多尊重。

一个主要因素也是这场比赛发生在杜阿拉，那里的球场状况很糟糕，而且科特迪瓦非常有利于他们，因为他们更直截了当，并且有更多的个人技巧。他们之前也曾在这里打过球，积累了经验，以及从类似于埃及、阿尔及利亚的比赛中获胜。

埃及确实在地面上打短传，但在这里做不到，科特迪瓦拥有数名世界级球员，他们拥有强大的实力，他们至少有50%的概率取胜。

比分参考2-0
