The only goal of the match was scored by Zizou, from a penalty kick, in the fourth minute.
After the goal, the 'Palancas Negras' launched themselves into attack, but missed several chances to score and, consequently, the opportunity to win the match.
The Angolans also complained of a penalty kick not given by the refereeing quartet of Mali.
Angola returns to Luanda on Saturday, September 4, where, three days later, plays Libya for the second round of group F of the African qualifying zone.
Before the game against Egypt, the Angolan selector Pedro Gonçalves regretted the little time he has to prepare the team, warning that this would have negative implications on the working group under his orders.
In the same group, also on Wednesday night, Libya beat Gabon, of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, by 2-1, and leads group F with Egypt, three points each. Angola and Gabon have yet to score.
