Hassan Shehata's team were stunned in Blantyre

African champions Egypt suffered a shock set-back in their bid to qualify for the 2010 World and Nations Cups, when they were beaten by Malawi.

Hassan Shehata's team looked to have held on for a 0-0 draw, until stoppage time at the end of the game.

But in the third minute of time added on Chiukepo Msowoya grabbed the goal which gave the Flames a famous victory to put them on top of Group 12.

Malawi, DR Congo and Egypt all have six points from three games, with Malawi top on goal difference.

The Pharaohs, reigning African champions, are down in third, and facing a real battle to get into the next round of qualifying.

DR Congo thrashed Djibouti on Friday by 6 goals to nil.
