Egypt faces the Democratic Republic of Congo this Sunday in the round of 16 of CAN 2023. Here is all the essential information on this match.
After a chaotic group stage, Egypt is approaching the round of 16 of this African Cup of Nations like a new tournament. And it will be necessary, because the Pharaohs, unconvincing until now, will especially have to do without their technical leader Mohamed Salah until the end of the competition. The record country for victories in the CAN will therefore have to approach this match against the Democratic Republic of Congo with the greatest vigilance. Chancel Mbemba and his teammates demonstrated during the first round that they were capable of causing problems for the competition favorites.
The expected compositions
Egypt : Gabaski – Hany, Hegazy, Abdel Monem, Fotouh – Fathi, Attia, Ashour – Zizo, Mohamed, Marmoush.
DR Congo : Mpasi-Nzau – Kalulu, Mbemba, Batubinsika, Masuaku – Pickel, Moutoussamy, Kakuta – Katomba Mvumpa, Wissa, Mayele.

This round of 16 of CAN 2023 between Egypt and the Democratic Republic of Congo will be broadcast this Sunday on beIN SPORTS 2, from 9 p.m. It will also be possible to watch it on the group’s streaming platform.
