International Friendly: Egypt 1 Kenya 0

The match presented Shawky Garib's men with a final chance to fine-tune preparations for their Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign, which gets under way in Senegal on Friday.

Egypt were without a host of key players who ply their trade in foreign leagues, and their under-strength XI found it difficult to break down a Kenya side ranked 66 below them in the FIFA rankings.

The substitute lost his marker before sliding in to meet a Sabri Rahil cross.

Garib will hope for better when a number of his top stars return for next week's Senegal clash.
