**Egypt vs Senegal U23 friendly in Dubai canceled amid confusion**
The friendly match scheduled for Thursday in Dubai between Egypt’s senior team and Senegal’s Under-23 side has been canceled by the Egyptian Football Association (EFA) due to a misunderstanding between the two federations.
While Egypt intended to arrange a senior-level friendly, Senegal traveled with their U23 squad as part of their preparations for the upcoming African Nations Championship (AFCON) for the same age group, set to take place later this year.
Unwilling to face the younger Senegalese team, Egypt opted to cancel the fixture. Instead, the Pharaohs will now face Zambia on October 11.
This cancellation follows Egypt’s earlier decision to call off a friendly against Togo, originally set for October 13. The Togolese Football Federation confirmed the match will be rescheduled for 2016, citing circumstances beyond their control.
