    Fast break, Salah finds Zico free and he beats Dibu to the ball:
    apparently 0-2!
    But VAR may call it back for a foul at the start of the break... and
    it does.
    Still 0-1.

    Tchau!

    Predictably one-way traffic in the second half, but Egypt are able to
    score a second on a brilliant counterattack. Waved off by VAR for a
    very, very, soft foul at the beginning of the move. Still 1-0.

    There may have been a couple of VAR-reviewable minor fouls at the
    beginning of the move, but this time curiously VAR did not intervene.

    Feel bad for Egypt. In the end the daylight robbery of the disallowed
    goal didn't matter that much, as Egypt were able to go up 2-0 just
    minutes later. They just couldn't hold on to the lead.
