BENGUELA, ANGOLA // The two-time defending champions Egypt advanced to the quarter-finals of the African Cup of Nations, beating Mozambique 2-0 through an own-goal from Dario Khan and a strike from substitute Mohammed Gedo. The Mozambique defender Khan put Ahmed Fathi's cross into his own net in the 47th minute.
Gedo struck a left-footed volley in the 81st to give the Egyptians six points in Group C with one match left to play against Benin. Only Nigeria can equal them on points.
After a slow start, Mozambique's Goncalves Fumo tested the goalkeeper Essam al Hadari with a left-footed volley from 20 yards but he easily held the shot.
Then the Mozambique goalkeeper Kampango was called into action when he dived to his right to keep out Emad Moteab's strike in the 19th minute.
Mahmoud Shikabala forced another diving save from Kampango in the 25th after firing from outside the box.
Shikabala and Moteab had a chance each in the next five minutes but again failed to beat Kampango who was keeping the minnows in the contest. Egypt should have taken the lead in the 45th minute off a set piece but Moteab's shot from the edge of the box was stopped by Kampango.
Mozambique's Tico-Tico had an opportunity in the 53rd after a long-range shot that took a deflection, but he fired the rebound wide.
Lobo's 58th-minute effort was ruled out for an offside as Mozambique squandered chance after chance as they fought admirably to get back into the contest.
Sitoe's free kick flew wide past al Hadari in the 73rd, and Hagi blasted another equalising chance three minutes later wide.
Egypt took control of the game after Khan's own-goal. Moteab started the move that led to the second goal, playing in Gedo, who lofted a volley just under the crossbar, giving Kampango no chance.
