Really enjoyed watching the Egypt-Brazil football match couple of days ago. The Egypt team came 1-3 from behind to equalise at 3-3. Egypt finally lost 3-4 to Brazil, but not before they gave a severe scare to the Brazil team. My son and I were of course rooting for the Egypt team, and both of us were quite crest-fallen when Brazil were awarded the penalty kick. Watching the match on TV reminded us about the Egypt-Congo match in the Africa cup which we had watched live in the huge Cairo stadium 3 years back. The atmosphere was electric and for us Indians it was our first exposure to how intense the atmosphere is in a football match compared to that in a cricket match.
