Egypt to play South Africa Griffin Park in London

Egypt s friendly international against South Africa on Nov. 15 has been fixed for Brentford s Griffin Park, the South African Football Association said on Monday. The ground in the west of the capital has a capacity of almost 13,000, although division Brentford average around half that for their third division games. The friendly will be the second time South Africa have played in London. They lost 1-0 to Australia in a friendly at Loftus Road in March 2004. South Africa are hoping the match will mark a return to their side of the Blackburn Rovers striker Benni McCarthy, who has turned down call-ups for their last three matches.
