revealed that the technical staff don’t want to play friendly match
against Qatar on March 7.
The Egyptian Football Association under leadership of Gamal Allam
had asked Bob Bradley to play friendly match with Qatar duo to
the close relationship the two FA’s.
”We don’t need this match, it will not be good
for us , and Bob Bradley has approached Allam about this” Diaa said to
supersport.com.
”We asked to play a friendly match against a second level team from
Africa and we picked Kenya or Swaziland and that was supposed to be on
March 22. This is what we need before our match against Zimbabwe. Those game fall on a FIFA day so we can call all our players but that will not be the case for the Qatar
match.” he
