TopQuality Egypt Not at World Cup to Make Up the Numbers Coach Says
Egypt are not at the World Cup to make up the numbers and showed their potential and quality players in Monday's 1-1 draw with Belgium, coach Hossam Hassan said, after they came agonizingly close to their dream of a first win in the showpiece event. The Pharaohs went ahead with a brilliant 20th-minute strike from Emam Ashour and were a handful for the Belgians, who levelled in the 66th minute when record scorer Romelu Lukaku, a little over 20 seconds after entering the game, forced an own goal from Mohamed Hany.
