Egyptian coach Bob Bradley made just two changes in his final squad for the second-leg World Cup playoff against Ghana.
Hull City’s Ahmed Elmohamady and Ahly’s Abdallah El-Said were the only players dropped from the 25-man squad announced on Sunday.
The American trainer decided to keep faith with majority of his players who suffered a humiliating 6-1 defeat to Ghana in the first leg encounter in Kumasi.
Bradley will however be hoping to capitalize on Al Ahly’s Champions League triumph to instigate a football miracle against the Black Stars on November 19.
The squad will begin preparations towards the game that will be played at the Air Defence Stadium in Cairo on Tuesday.
