The Egyptian Football Association have guaranteed that they have superb security in place for their match against Ghana next month in the World Cup playoff.
Ghana had sent a request to Fifa to move the match out Egypt due to security concerns and that made the football body to ask the EFA to provide security guarantees.
"We have guarantees from both the Ministry of Interior and the Egyptian Army and we will send them to Fifa" EFA spokesman Azmy Megahed told supersport.com.

"The Ministry of Interior and the Army can control everything. Furthermore the clash will be at the El Defea El Gawe stadium that is owned by the Army. You cant get more secure than that." he added.
" I think what Ghana did when they sent Fifa this letter is low but we will still welcome them here".
Egypt will host the Black Stars on November 19th in Cairo.
The first leg will be in Kumasi on Tuesday at the Baba Yara Stadium.
