CAIRO: German tabloid magazine Bild described Egypt players celebration after scoring in the Oman friendly as one of the dumbest in football history.
Mohamed Abou-Trika scored the only goal of the game, after which he went to the byline to celebrate with Egypt s benchwarmers.
However, Amr Zaki and Ahmed Eid Abdel-Malek collided when they both jumped to hug Abou-Trika. Zaki needed a few stitches after the incident and had to be taken-off.
Zaki must have wished the game ended in a stalemate, Bild sarcastically wrote.
The Oman exhibition on May 30 was part of Egypt s preparations for the World Cup qualifier against Algeria on June 7 as well as the Confederations Cup starting June 14.
