A warning to coach Shawky Gharib Egyptian football officials have warned the former national team midfielder that he will be replaced if the country suffers a third consecutive qualifying disappointment. National team results are the responsibility of the coaches and we will hire a foreigner if Gharib fails to take the team to Morocco, football association president Gamal Allam warned. Gharib suffered a late blow when one of seven overseas-based players in a 25-man squad, Hull City wing-back Ahmed Elmohamady, withdrew injured. Egypt are a team in transition and Gharib has not found a new spine to replace retired defender Wael Gomaa and midfielder Mohamed Abou Trika and injured striker Mohamed Gedo Nagy.
