American coach Bob Bradley revealed that Egypt national team made good progress in the closed training camp in Sudan, where they played two friendlies against Uganda and Chad, respectively.

"We got our target from Sudan's camp" Bradley told the post Chad game press conference.

"Sudan's camp confirmed that the preparations for the African Cup of Nations qualifiers are on the right pagh," he added.

"I worked during this camp to define the team's character and to create harmony between the players."

The seven-time African champions thrashed Chad 4-0 in a friendly game as part of their training camp in Sudan, two days after claiming a late 2-1 win over Uganda.

"Uganda and Chad friendlies were successful for our preparations," the Egypt coach said.

"I will pick a 22-player squad to join Egypt's last camp, but everything depend on the teams' situation in the African tournaments."

Egyptian teams, Ahly and Zamalek, are participating in the CAF Champions League, while Petroleum giants, ENPPI, are taking part in the African Confederation Cup.
