Egypt's national team have been pooled in Group F in the 2022 Africa's  World Cup qualifiers alongside Libya, Angola, and Gabon.

The Pharaohs have to top their group to qualify for the last round of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.

"It is a good draw. We were worried about facing strong teams such as Ivory Coast, South Africa, and Burkina Faso as they were the best teams in Pot 2, " the Pharaohs manager Mohamed Barakat said.

Barakat asserted that the competition would not be easy in the Pharaohs' group, but he added that it is a good thing to avoid facing strong teams.
