EGYPT 2-0 ALGERIA
Group C Qualifying Competition for the 2010 FIFA World Cup

Fiercely contested local derby
The result of this game left Egypt and Algeria tied for first place in Group C, necessitating a playoff match in a neutral country. This took place in Omdurman, Sudan on 18 November, with Algeria winning 1–0.
Egypt was not qualified to participate in the World Cup final tournament in South Africa in June 2010.

Egypt took revenge for the World Cup loss against Algeria.
More national pride than soccer.
