    Warning Egypt?

    They already warned them before the incident !!!!!!!

    Fifa; if that happened to a European team, they would have disqualified Egypt.



    FIFA warns Egypt on security after Algeria attack





    World football governing body FIFA warned Egypt on Friday to step up security for a key World Cup qualifier with Algeria after stonethrowing fans injured three away players as they were being bussed to the team hotel.
    FIFA said it would announce what action if any it was taking against the Egyptian football federation later in the day after considering a detailed report on the incident from its representatives on the ground in Cairo.
    One FIFA representative, Walter Gagg, confirmed to AFP that three Algerian players had sustained injuries which may yet rule them out of Saturday's key game, which will decide which of the bitter North African rivals advances to the World Cup finals in South Africa next year.
    "We saw that three players had been injured -- Khaled Lemmouchia on the head, Rafik Halliche above the eye and Rafik Saifi on the arm," Gagg said.
    "These weren't superficial injuries," he stressed.
    "With the s ches needed, we will have to see if these players can play. The team doctor has still to make a decision on that."
    Gagg said Algeria's goalkeeping coach had suffered concussion, and described the bus itself as in a "very bad way with broken windows and traces of blood on the floor".
    His report of events contrasted with that of the Egyptian police, who insisted on Thursday that none of the Algerian players had been injured by ther stonethrowing, and even more so with those of the Egyptian press which charged that the whole incident was a fabrication.

    A FIFA spokesman said: "We have reiterated to the Egyptian association our request that all security measures be taken so that the match can go ahead."
    The Algerian press carried front-page pictures of the injured players. The French-language El Watan newspaper showed a photograph of midfielder Lemmouchia's bloodied head with the headline "After the ambush against the Greens."
    The paper said it thought it unlikely that Saturday's game would be cancelled because of the injuries to the players but suggested that the Egyptian federation might be fined.
    "Despite the hostility of the Egyptians, the Greens will not give in," the paper said.


    Egyptian foreign ministry spokesman Hossam Zaki had told the media they should "work to maintain the strong ties between both countries and should not fuel disagreements that are unrelated to sports and sportsmanship."
    The pre-match atmosphere in Egypt had already surged to feverish heights.
    Around 70,000 Egyptians are expected to pack the stadium on Saturday. Around 2,000 tickets have been allocated to Algerian fans.
    Algeria can afford to lose the game by a one-goal margin and still qualify for the World Cup. A two-goal defeat would force a decider in Khartoum on November 18.

    Thanks, but did you see our players with bandage ?

    Some of our key players didn't play because of attacks related injuries.

    Oh, and get this, 3 ALgerian supporters are currently in the hospital.
    They were sitting in the bus, just going to their hotel, right after the game, when they were attacked by Egyptians

    Egypt, ing cheaters, afraid to lose to us

    They are not men

    And fifa

    FIFA and Egypt

    It's not the 1st time Egypt cheats in order to win

    They did that with us in 1989, with Tunisisa,and with Ivory Coast in 2006 (Drogba was pissed !)

    Algeria deserved to go on. This is probably the strongest African contingent to the WC ever. Ghana, Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Algeria and Nigeria (and of course SA).

    Thanks a lot ; yeah it was a bit rugbyesque because of the bitter rivalry; but we are more skilled than that.

    Thanks; yeah we have improved quickly; this contingent is impressive as you say; Africa will be well represented; hopefully, Blatter won't screw us



    Oh, and funny story:

    Egypt picked Soudan for an eventual playoff game, because it's close to Egypt and they thought they would get full support from Sudanese.

    Wrong !
    The whole country was behind Algeria , the whole stadium was green
