Egypt managed just a solitary shot on target as they were knocked out of the AFCON semi-finals by Senegal. A match strikingly devoid of quality was settled late on by Sadio Mane, who fired low into the bottom corner from the edge of the area to give Senegal the lead. Egypt had been dour and negative to that point - they parked from the off and looked exclusively to attack on the counter. Finally forced to come out of their shell with ten minutes remaining, a first shot on target finally came in the 95th minutes, but Edouard Mendy was equal to it. Too little, too late.
