Egypt Wins African Cup of Nations

October 25th, 2021 Online Sports Betting Odds Line

Sports betting had Egypt winning the African Cup of Nations for the third straight time Sunday. It was not an easy online sports betting win though as substitute Mohamed Gedo scored in the 85th minute for a 1-0 win over Ghana.

Sports betting had Ghana dominating most of the match against Egypt but they simply couldn’t score.  Gedo scored late in the sports betting match to give Egypt their record seventh title. Ghana is the team that qualified for the World Cup and they had a real chance to get their first title since 1982 but it did not happen in online sports betting against Egypt.

One of the best chances for Ghana came in the 52nd minute when Asamoah Gyan had a great free kick that was just tipped over the bar by El Hadary.  Gyan had scored the game winners against Angola and Nigeria and he was almost the online sports betting hero again. He almost scored in the 74th minute but missed.

Gedo was the man for Egypt in this tournament as he scored five goals. He was set up very well for the game winner and he beat goalkeeper Richard Kingson at the far post. Egypt celebrated their big sports betting win but security was tight and things were held in control.

Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac was not totally displeased even though the team suffered a tough loss. He believes the experience will help his squad at the World Cup. “Experience gained here will be crucial to our preparations at the World Cup,” Rajevac said, “We now have enough time to prepare.” It is not out of the question for Ghana to advance out of Group D.  Germany will be the favorite in sports betting from that group but Serbia and Australia are beatable.   And things could get better for Ghana in online sports betting if they get Michael Essien back from injury.  Also, captain Stephen Appiah didn’t play due to injury. John Mensah and John Paintsil were also injured as sports betting info indicated. The younger players like Emmanuel Badu and midfield partner Andre Ayew were great in this sports betting tournament.  Rajevac is not making any promises though for the World Cup squad. “The young players are the future,” he said. “But they cannot play on their own. Egypt beat us today because they have plenty of experience.”
