Egypt will be without midfielder, Marwan Attia and forward, Salah Mohsen for their third-place encounter with Nigeria, DAILY POST reports.
The duo were suspended for the game by the Confederation of African Football, CAF, for their unsportsmanlike conduct following Egypt’s 1-0 semi-final loss to Senegal.
Attia made a gesture suggesting that the referees had been bribed, while Mohsen made mocking gestures toward Senegalese journalists.
Their suspension came as a big blow for Pharaohs head coach, Hossam Hassan, who is already juggling absences heading into the clash with Nigeria.
The seven-time champions will face the Super Eagles at the Mohammed V Stadium, Casablanca on Saturday (today).
The game will kick-off at 5pm Nigeria time.
Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
