Win over Morocco sends Pharaohs to Afcon final four, dominates international coverage of Egypt this morning

Egypt’s win over Morocco last night (securing a semi-final berth at the African Cup of Nations) is far and away the biggest story on Egypt this morning as the international press focuses on the transgressions of The Donald rather than those of Egypt. See coverage from the Associated Press, ESPN, Eurosport, the Guardian, BBC Sport and the Daily Mail (the latter with tons of game photos), among dozens of others. Or check out our hometown favourite, King Fut. The Pharaohs will play Burkina Faso on Wednesday.

The top business story on Egypt this morning is Reuters’ piece on Finance Minister Amr El Garhy saying at presser yesterday that “Egypt is considering issuing international bonds in currencies such as the Japanese Yen and the Chinese Yuan.”
