Egypt 1-0 Benin | CAF African Championship 2013
Egypt finish the group stage with maximum nine points after securing a 1-0 victory over Benin in the U-20 African Championship on Friday.
The young Pharaohs finished on top of Group A with nine points, thanks to a goal from midfielder Mahmoud Abdel-Moneim “Kahraba” midway through the first half.
Algeria surprisingly failed to reach the semi-final after a 2-0 defeat by Ghana gave the Black Stars the second Group A ticket to the last four.
Egypt will face the runners-up of Group B. Mali top the group with six points, three ahead of Nigeria and five ahead of DR Congo and Gabon with one game remaining.
