CAIRO: A source inside the Egypt squad insisted that the alleged attack on the bus carrying the team in Sudan was nothing but an individual act.
Al-Hayat TV reported earlier that “the Egypt bus was attacked by angry Algerian fans, but it seems that it was a false rumor once again.
It was an individual act, we are all fine here, a source who spoke on the condition of anonymity told FilGoal.com.
All what happened is that one supporter threw an object on the bus, causing a minimal glass break.
Egypt s competition with Algeria for a World Cup place has been marred by a series of vicious events, usually triggered by the media in both nations.
I hope that the press would stop complicating things by making a fuss out of everything. We want to focus on the game, the source added.
Following a dramatic 2-0 win in Cairo on Saturday, Egypt will be looking to repeat their victory over the Desert Foxes in Khartoum on Wednesday.
