Internationals: Trio qualify for AFCON 2021

Congratulations to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mohamed Elneny and Thomas Party whose countries have all qualified for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.

Aubameyang claimed a goal and an assist as he captained Gabon to a 3-0 win over DR Congo on Thursday evening, while Elneny was an unused substitute in Egypt's 1-1 draw with Kenya.

Our duo will decide whether their countries go through as group winners on Monday, when Gabon head to Angola and Egypt face Comoros.

After missing Ghana's 1-1 draw with South Africa, Partey is now available for the Black Stars' final group game against Sao Tome and Principe on Sunday.
