CAIRO: Oman will not be seeking to register a win over Egypt in the imminent friendly exhibition, according to president of the Omani FA Khaled Ben Hamed.

Recording a victory over Egypt is not our objective; we just want to benefit from the game, he told the Egyptian FA s official website.

I m pretty sure the game will be a good experience for us and for the Egyptians as well.

The warm-up match is part of Pharaohs perpetrations for their upcoming World Cup qualifier against Algeria.

From his side, Egyptian FA president Samir Zaher believes the exhibition game will be a peaceful affair.

The tension-free atmosphere and the warm reception Egypt s contingent was given in Oman suggest the game will witness no stress, he said.

We are hoping the match will help us prepare before our World Cup qualifier against Algeria.
