Egypt is still winless in the African Cup of Nations. In the three previous African Championship tournaments, Egypt, who made it to the finals twice, is hoping for a boost from the sacrifice animal. Egyptian team spokesman Mohamed Morad told the AP news agency that the country’s football association has sacrificed a cow to bring happiness to its football heroes. The meat of the slaughtered cow went to charity, as it had been distributed to the needy in the country’s capital, Cairo.
