Sofia, Bulgaria, June 9, 2012 – The match Egypt-France, played on Friday at the World Olympic Qualification in Sofia, virtually ended the possibilities for the African team to reach their fourth participation after 1984, 2000 and 2008.

Elshemerly Sherif, the coach of the Egyptian team, was not completely sure if his player could surprise the fans in Arena Armeec and at the same disappoint the French supporters, but anyway he was absolutely sure that the preparation after the continental qualification missed in Cameroon was not enough to beat the best in Sofia.
