Essam El-Hadary

Egypt goalkeeper Essam El-Hadary becomes the oldest player at an Africa Cup of Nations tournament and keeps a clean sheet against Mali.

El-Hadary turned 44 on Sunday and came on in the first half after an injury to Ahmed El-Shenawy, who collided with the post following Moussa Marega's cross.

Arsenal's Mohamed Elneny wasted two first-half chances for Egypt, striking over and hitting an effort wide.

Osmane Coulibaly headed over from close range for Mali late on.

The result leaves Egypt second in Group D behind Ghana, who beat Uganda 1:0.
