The first Egyptian national hockey team will face Ghana today in the fourth round competitions of the African Hockey Road to Tokyo 2020, held in South Africa from 12th to 18th of August.

The pharaohs are in the second place with 9 points collected from winning three consecutive games against Zambia, Kenya and Namibia, with two games remaining against Ghana and South Africa respectively.

Our national team started the championship with a victory over Zambia 6-0, then won the game over Kenya 7-2 in the second round also won over Namibia 6-1 in the third round of the African Hockey Road to Tokyo 2020. 

Our national team, led by Mohy Zaghloul, is hoping to snatch the qualifying ticket, especially after their outstanding performance at the last French International Championship, held last month in France. Note that South Africa is the first candidate to win the qualifiers.
