Egypt beat Nigeria 3-1
Luanda, 13 Jan-(ANA)-Defending champions Egypt came from behind to seal a fine victory over Nigeria in the Africa Cup of Nations.
Chinedu Obasi put Nigeria in front in the 12th minute with a clinical finish.
Egypt levelled when a goalkeeping error let Emad Moteab slip the ball into an empty net, before a deflected effort from Ahmed Hassan put them ahead.
And a superb long-range drive from substitute Mohamed 'Gedo' Nagy minutes from time completed the turnaround as Egypt moved to the top of Group C. (ANA)
