Egypt's group rivals in the World Cup qualifiers Mozambique and Zimbabwe played out a goalless stalemate in Maputo. Both teams failed to win their first match following opening defeats against Egypt and Guinea, who play later on Sunday in Conakry. In Group A, minnows Ethiopia moved to top thanks to a 2-0 victory over Central African Republic, who face Egypt twice this month in the CAN 2013 qualifiers. Both goals in Addis Ababa were scored by striker Seid Saladin, who plies his trade in Egypt with Wadi Degla. Sudan, who stunned African champions Zambia in the opener, were held to a goalless draw in Lesotho, while Tanzania beat Gambia 2-1.
