Former Egyptian International Ahmed Hossam Mido is hoping that the Egyptian National team will be drawn against Nigeria in the African Playoff .

Egypt and Nigeria have both qualified for the last stage of the World Cup African qualifiers along with eight other teams. They will be paired to play two matches. " I hope the draw gives us Nigeria. This will be very good for our National team because Nigeria has a good team and their players a very skilled. They keep improving since they won the last AFCON and it's better for us to play against them and get tested. They play real fast flowing football and that in the long run will only make Egypt better and will make our mission at the end easier" Mido told supersport.com .

" I don’t want Ghana or Ivory Coast .They are not suitable for us this time nor is Algeria because of all the tension and outside drama between the two north African teams in football " the former Tottenham player added. Wael Gomaa seems to be on the same page adding " I don’t want easy teams because Egypt plays her best games against only the tough teams".

" All the players have the big dream to reach the World Cup ,and we are ready to play with any team - big or small." the 38 year old concluded."

Madawaki01: D fear of egypt is d beggining of wisdom,I won't want d super eagles to be drawn wit egypt,ethiopia will do.

bboiabb: at least they are respecting us. they said " I don’t want easy teams because Egypt plays her best games against only the tough teams".. they know we are not an easy team like ivory coast and ghana.

As much as i want ethiopia, i wanna see egypt again. i am still angry from that 3-1 win they gave us several years ago (when they used to be africa's top dogs). we need revenge

baby-boy:
Egypt knows how to play the home and away ties, they know how to frustrate home teams when playing away, and they know all the ojoro in the book to get a win when playing at home.

Firstly the home tie will be on Friday evening.

We should avoid Egypt at all cost... Algeria I dont mind (thats if they qualified)

modextus: NO thanks! I want both nigeria and egypt to be at the world cup.

Ajibel: Its like Mido doesnt want Egypt to be at d W/C hoping for Nig. How unpatriotic

I liked almost every coment on this thread. Hmmmmm, in as much as I will like to ENJOY watching the Super Eagles in Brasil come 2014, I will pray for US not to meet Egypt. Revenge can wait 4 now. This north àfricans can be unpredictable.

Davo93: Lolss.. the fear of north African countries is ticket to 2014 FIFA World Cup

Chelcy10:
I tell u, those guys can frustrate home teams and always win at all cost when playing at home. Remember Tunisia have always dealth with us in WCQs even though we scaled through in 2009, but I still cant 4get dat 2nd leg match in Abuja, despite the fact they are on ramadan fast, those guys nearly caused my dad heart attack, that he stoped watching Super eagles matches until after coach Siasia hammered Argentina 4-1

Evestar200: all i want is the Cape verde vs Cameroun tie,,cuz both countries have unfinished business,,Cape verde was the one that stop Cameroun Afcon 2013 dream
