According to FIFA's international calendar, Egypt are scheduled to face Tanzania in a friendly game on the 19th of November. The Egyptian Football Association (EFA) earlier announced that they consider facing either Morocco or Mali on the same date. But it now seems that the Pharaohs would meet Tanzania instead. The match was included in FIFA's match fixtures for November. However, the EFA are yet to make any announcement regarding that matter. Tanzania failed to reach the World Cup qualifiers' final phase after finishing third in Group one behind Cameroon and Cape Verde. Egypt host Zambia in March of next year in Group C opener. The six-time African champions will also face Algeria and Rwanda.
