It's Egypt vs Algeria. Two major enemies. Last year both teams had to go and face each other in a playoff in Sudan to decide who would qualify for the worldcup. The Algerians won. A few weeks earlier Algeria played in Cairo and the players' bus got stoned. It's deep-rooted rivalry and high emotions. Tough game. And Egypt is still very much a wounded animal for not having qualified for the first world cup on African soil. On its continent! Revenge is in the air.
The other semifinal is a West African affair between Nigeria and Ghana. Tough one too. I predict an Egypt - Nigeria final.
