They appear to be as good of rivals as Nigeria was in the past.

I think Egypt is a solid side and I am glad we get to face them.

It will force the Coach to improve his strategies!

Please, please, please, Listen, We fear no foe not even the moister. Analyze, materialize and check how many friendly's, how many home matches plaid in Egypt, how many draws and how many wins Ghana have won when we counts the serious matches on Africa cups both home and away they have met. Ask your self, does Ghana take it serious on friendly and Olympics' matches does days, do you think Ghana goes in for seriousness for such matches? Listen folks, Egypt have their own fears too and they know how difficult the match is to them. Ghana needs just a solid win at home that is all. Its all up to the coach, the technical team and the players to have vim and faith to go all out to achieve their glory. In fact, I actually admires the confidence of the players they explore during tough matches like this type. Ghana Black stars, good luck.

Hey Guys I am an Egyptian and I can say it's a tough game on both of the teams. Egypt yes the champion for the African cup 7 times 3 times in a row and we have big history in football, but when it comes to the worldcup qualifiers we feel sad we haven't been to the worldcup since 1990. So I can say that Egypt will not waste this chance to go to the worldcup. Finally good luck for the winner and by the way guys I like your team and I was supporting it in 2010 worldcup

Thinking about dancing before scoring a goal is not a recipe to beat Egypt.
Going to the World Cup is big marketing Business for Ghana and Ghanaians. Those appointed to represent the Nation must be focus on achieving the goal than achieving the dance on the field.
If Ghana will go into the Egypt game with all dancing attitude, then the serious ones will qualify and the coach must not be blamed but illiterate players and unlike business minded ones must be sacked from the team.
Goals against Ghana, by Mali 4, Zambia 2, Burkina Faso 3, Egypt 2, Japan 1, and these 12 goals came in the form of corner kicks. Where the ball is put in the box for one to strike.
Has Ghana learned from not conceding such cheap goals. Germany started those kind of goals against us, then Italy and others continue.
This tells the world, Ghanaians never learn from their mistakes, but always want to apportion blame.
If Ghana want to be serious and win the World cup, all those azonto players must be rested and field in a more serious players.

Listen to yourself... all the players dance the azonto when a goal is scored. Give us a new list of players if you want us to replace the entire team.

The issue is about preventing goals from being scored in a cheap manner and not scoring goals ourselves which is when the azonto dance is displayed.

You are so right, Egypt is a solid side so will help our coach to improve before the WC tournament begins.

All these facts presented are no where near the intensification of this upcoming play-off. Yes, it is good to have statistics in order to draw a domain based on that; however, this stats has nothing to do with what is at stake. All the statistics are on hold for now. They can't be taken into consideration as far as this play-off is at stake.

Here are my reasons:

Reason #1 None of the facts presented mentioned any relation of a WC play off. This is our first time in terms of WC play-off. I may be wrong but I never heard the African continent going into play-offs to decide which country is to go to the WC. This kind of play-off is familiar within the South American countries and in the European countries. Therefore, this is our first.

Reason #2 This is not an AFCON finals or a friendly match. There is no friendly in these coming two crucial matches. This is a do or die affair. It is either you win to snatch your ticket to Brazil or you loose to humbly receive your ticket to go home.

Reason #3 What makes this pair so serious is the fact that we, Ghanaians, want to hit a hat-trick by going to the WC for three consecutive times. Egypt on the other hand, wants to appear for their third time, though not back-to-back.

Reason #4 Egypt was hunted during the 2010 WC qualification by their own brothers, Algeria, and was eliminated. Instead of them to seek revenge from Algeria, their prayer has been answered to take it upon one of the West African giants, Ivory Coast, Nigeria or Ghana. In other words, for them to seek the desire to be paired with Algeria so that they may have the opportunity to revenge, they rather prayed to avoid Algeria so that they could have one of the West African Nations. According to their recent report, Egypt plays better against the West African Teams than against their neighbors, who are Tunisia, Libya, Morocco and of course, Algeria. They see the West African Teams as one of the best sides in the continent but plays better against us.

Reason #5 To us, for the fact that Egypt stopped us from winning our five AFCON trophy, this pair is seen as an opportunity to revenge. The friendly match that took place in January with a 3-0 win over Egypt, isn't enough. The coming encounter suit the magnitude of the pain Egypt inflicted upon us during the 2010 finals. I think after we are done with them at the end of November, we will be satisfied.

Reason #6 Bob Bradley, the Head Coach of the Egyptians, is searching for the right time to pay us back for the defeat he and his charges, (at that time was the head coach of the US National team) suffered when we beat them 2-1 at the round of 16th in the 2010 WC tournament. For this reason, whatever he hasn't studied yet from his coaching text books, I could bet you that he is going to cram into his little brain. The Soccernomics, Inverting the Pyramid, also translates as, "The History of Football Tactics", and the Brilliant Spain which as well could be translated as the Neurotic Genius of Spanish Soccer, these are few of the text books going to be read by this man for he is in this tag of war for a mission.

Therefore, Coach Appiah should get ready for the arrows about to be releasing unto our beloved Black Stars because what is coming is not about which nation won any of the friendlies, or even any of the AFCON trophies. It is about which nation has what it takes to grab the ticket to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

The Dancing mindset where The Black Stars scores a goal dance Azonto and get carried away need to stop. Football is about winning not dancing.

In my opinion Ayew plays the first half with Essien and Gyan coming in at the second half.Maintain Kevin on the the bench and utilize the combination of Kwadwo Asamoah,and the new younger kids better in the first half.Please bring back Sulley and keep a watchful eye on how well Dede is performing with the team,if he is still holding on to the ball for too long pull him out.Whatever happened to Adiyah and Paintsil?

Adiyah and Paintsil are not active. In games like this you need people who are in game condition. This likely the starting line up. GK Kwarsey, LB DAvid Addy, RB Opare, CB J. Mensah, CB Boye, DM Rabiu Mohammed, RW Ayew, ...

If we are winning after 60 minutes bring in Essien and Agyemang Badu for defensive stability. If we are in a draw or losing bring in Muntari, KPB and possibly Acheampong. Let us wait and see.

Idiot, all the match dates have been listed? Are you blind or do you want the total to be counted for you? Just 'bloody' add the wins, draws and losses and you come up with the total of 21.
