Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah was involved in both of his country's goals as Egypt beat DR Congo to secure their place in the last 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations.
Egypt took the lead when Aston Villa's Ahmed Elmohamady met Salah's cross, and finished at the second time of asking.
Salah then took centre stage himself - netting with a powerful strike after fine work from Trezeguet.
Seven-time winners Egypt now join Nigeria in the last 16 of the tournament - after the Super Eagles beat Guinea 1-0 on Wednesday to become the first nation to qualify for the knockout phase.
Egypt kicked off the competition with a 1-0 win over Zimbabwe and will progress as group winners if they avoid defeat on Sunday against second-placed Uganda.
