Marmoush screamer breathes new life into Egypt 💥

The monstrous strike! 

Egypt is one of the favorites of the AFCON, and yet their first match got off to a very bad start against Zimbabwe. The Pharaohs were caught off guard in the first half and trailed, unable to find solutions against the "Warriors". 

It took a moment of individual brilliance from Marmoush around the hour mark to break the deadlock and prevent Egypt from truly sinking into panic and doubt.

Breaking into space down the left side, the Manchester City striker, close to the goal from a very tight angle, unleashed a powerful shot under the crossbar, squeezing it through the narrowest of gaps.

A goal of the highest quality that allowed Egypt to escape the trap, with a quarter of an hour still to play to try for more.
