Egypt doctor Hossam Al-Ibrashi rubbished reports suggesting that the Ahli guardian was taken to hospital after the game, confirming his availability against Sudan next week.

"Essam is 100% fit, he sustained no injury during the collision," the Egypt doctor told FilGoal.com.

Goalkeeping coach Ahmed Soliman also indicated that there are no concerns over Al-Hadari, and that the Egypt number one is ready for the Sudan match.

Al-Hadari, who captained Egypt in the massive win, suffered a facial injury that kept him out of action for several weeks last year, following a collision with an opponent in a Champions League game with Ahli.
