Egypt have won the Africa Cup of Nations for the 3rd year in a row as they beat Ghana 1-0.
They certainly have been the best team of the tournament and were deserved winners. Ghana, however, were probably the better team in the final, but never made the most of their possession and paid the price when Gedo came off the bench with 20 minutes to go and scored the only goal of the match.
Ghana at least have a consolation that they have a World Cup to look forward to and, with this young team plus the likes of Michael Essien, they have reason to be optimistic about their chances of getting out of their group in South Africa. Egypt get to keep the trophy as it's their third successive victory.
