Winger Osman, who struggled in the game, was substituted for Inaki Williams in the second half. Even though Williams made a mistake leading to Egypt’s goal, Osman’s similar error led to his substitution.

Looking forward to their next match against Mozambique, Hughton recognizes the need for a victory to advance in the tournament.
