the continental youth games, according to

The Egyptians proved a bit too much for Makoanyane XI, going into a two goal lead in the opening 12 minutes of their Group B match. Abdalllah Abdou opened the scoring in the seventh minute and Ahmed Farag doubled the lead just five minutes later. The other three goals of the match all came in the final fifteen minutes of the second-half. Abdallah Mohammed extended Egypt's lead to 3-0 in the 75th minute before Mahmoud Alla Fadl put the game beyond doubt with an 82nd minute strike. Lesotho got a late consolation through a penalty converted by Lintho Kori. 24 January 2005 |
