Chai! Wetin we go talk about the Africa Cup of Nations wey dey happen for Morocco? Na wah oh! As the match dey hot, Egypt don come collect 2-1 win from Zimbabwe courtesy of our guy Mohamed Salah! This one na serious matter, my people.

For this opening match, the Pharaohs dey flex their muscles, but na Zimbabwe wey shock dem first with Prince Dube wey score for 20th minute. Na im be the waka wey catch Egypt for surprise. As e be, Zimbabwe, wey no dey shine for the world ranking, come play like dem be big boys by taking lead.

But Egypt no fit gree, dem dey push them own, even though dem dey waste chances like rain wey dey fall for Lagos. Salah dey try, but the ball no dey enter net until Omar Marmoush come charge from left side and score for 63rd minute. At least na im finally bring hope for the Egyptian fans wey dey fear say dem go draw.

As time dey run, e enter stoppage time and e no dey look like say Egypt go fit win. But our king, Mohamed Salah come show say him no sabi give up. E control one high ball, dodge im marker wey dey try hold am like thief wey wan go steal, and bang the ball past Zimbabwe goalkeeper, Washington Arubi. Gbam! The stadium just burst with cheer, make you no go believe am!

This win no be just ordinary; e mean say Egypt dey set for better things for this AFCON. I no fit lie, if dem fit maintain this momentum, we fit dey see dem for semi-finals or even finals very soon. Dem dey join South Africa and Angola for Group B, and this kind win go ginger dem for next match.

As e be now, Zimbabwe fit feel bad say dem work hard, but na football and na this kind late goal dey make the sport sweet. E don show say even small teams fit give big teams serious wahala if dem put in the effort. Na wetin we go call life lesson!

So, my people, make we keep our eye on the next matches, and may be, just may be, we fit see Salah and im boys carry the AFCON trophy go home dis year. Na waiting we dey hopeful for! Make we take toast to football and wahala wey dey sweet, my pipo!
