<span data-preserver-spaces="true">At the moment when the game mattered most, the Pharaohs' captain netted the penalty, sending them to victory. </span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">As a defender for Manchester United, Bailly took the final moments of the game very harshly as he was playing well throughout, but just missed the winner by a hair. </span>

<span data-preserver-spaces="true">A matchup between Egypt and Morocco is scheduled for Sunday in Yaounde as part of the last eight of the African Cup of Nations. </span>
