Egypt manager Bob Bradley admits his side are facing a mission impossible against Ghana in the race to the 2014 World Cup, following a thumping loss in Kumasi. The Pharaohs were thrashed 6-1 in the first leg of the final playoffs, with Ghana in pole position to claim their third straight ticket to the finals. "The dream of going to the World Cup is what kept out team united for these two years. But today, we've seen that dream become nearly impossible," Bradley said at the post-match press conference. "Ghana is a proud footballing nation. Today the players and fans' talent and emotion all came through for them and they can be proud. "I say nearly impossible because the situation we've put ourselves in is a very difficult one. We know this and we feel this." Bradley's future Meanwhile, the Egyptian FA has yet to comment on Bradley's future, given that the American's contract runs out automatically after the end of the World Cup qualifying. It has been reported that the FA is not willing to sack Bradley before the second leg as the Egyptian football governing body will be complied to pay him a large penal clause. However, it seems that the former USA boss is unlikely to remain in his position after the second leg next month.
