Egypt claimed a 2-0 victory over Botswana in the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in Cairo. Like they did in Gaborone last week, the record African champions scored twice in the second half through Amr Gamal and Mohamed Salah. It was Basel midfielder Mohamed Elneny who was the star of the show though, having set up both goals in impressive fashion. Despite claiming their sixth point, Egypt remain in pursuit of joint-leaders Senegal and Tunisia, who meet later on Wednesday after drawing in Tunis last week. VIDEOS Ahli star Gamal fires home on 52 minutes after being sent through by Elneny's deft pass. Chelsea's Salah on target again, pouncing a long ball by his former Basel mate Elneny.
