"Manager Hugo Broos was unhappy with the award of Egypt's decisive penalty against his side and believed his team should have been awarded a late spot kick. "What happened will motivate us 200% to win against South Africa," said Broos. "We know that we have to win to be sure [of progressing] - and we will.""
"Zimbabwe are certain to take the second automatic qualification spot in the section at South Africa's expense if they win and Angola fail to beat Egypt, who are already through, in the simultaneous group decider. The Warriors drew their second match of the campaign 1-1 with Angola, having led against the Pharaohs in their first match until Omar Marmoush's 64th minute equaliser, with Mo Farah scoring a 91st-minute winner. "At least we still have a chance and we are playing for something," said captain Marvelous Nakamba. "It's an opportunity to give everything, fight for our country and, hopefully, get a more positive result.""
South Africa require only a draw with Zimbabwe in their final Group B match to guarantee a place in the last 16. South Africa beat Angola 2-1 in their opening game before losing 1-0 to Egypt, who played with ten men in the second half. Manager Hugo Broos criticised the decisive Egypt penalty and felt his team should have had a late spot kick. Zimbabwe will secure second place if they beat South Africa and Angola fail to beat already-qualified Egypt. Zimbabwe drew 1-1 with Angola and have attacking options despite Walter Musona’s absence.
