Kuwait club furious after being tricked into playing fake Egyptian team full of amateur players
Kuwaiti Premier League club Kazma were delighted to get a 7-1 friendly victory over Egyptian opponents Telephonat Beni Suef — until they discovered that their rivals in the match were a group of amateur players unconnected with the Egyptian side.
Organizers of the game at Kazma's training camp in the Egyptian city of Alexandria apologized, saying they had been deceived into thinking the rival team represented the Beni Suef side, who play in Egypt's third tier.
