International friendly England vs. Egypt

Had a choice. Watch Poland - Bulgaria or England - Egypt. Chose the second one and I don't regret although Poland won 2:0 and Egypt lost 1:3.

Egypt played very good, didn't give ground the opponent and actually was leading the game till the end of the first half. Zidan scored a beautiful goal.

El Hadary was great in the first half. Was placed right in every situation. However, he wasn't able to stop Crouch and Wright-Phillips in the second half.

I like his calmness and self-confidence he shows on the pitch. Haven't seen too much matches with him but almost in every one he preforms stunning saves. Wonder how long his international career will last. He seems to be in a good shape so perhaps he will play till 39, just like Van der Saar?
