Quote of the Week
"Hosting the World Cup is a great honour for Egyptians and will be a memorable moment for our children and our people. Reaching out to the global population from this land of peace -- by hosting an occasion that introduces to lives of our children a new league of role models and championship football players -- is indeed an inspiration and motivation to Egyptian children, youth and people. Not to mention football fans among Egyptian women who certainly aspire to join the World Cup Championship soon."
