When the Egyptian soccer team lost $2,400 dollars from a few players’ rooms in South Africa a couple days ago, the head of Egypt’s delegation was unusually quick to lay the blame on the players themselves and not on the host country of the Confederations Cup: “There was some negligence on the players’ part, leaving the money in drawers, and they’ll be getting firm instructions for next time.”
(”Now go back to your room with no prostitutes!”)
Now we may know why: the players might have been getting firm instructions from prostitutes hired after their tremendous upset win over powerhouse Italy and left their drawers down while the female sex workers made off with their cash in a robbery. Well, that’s better; it’s not a security problem but an entirely different kind of crime. See you next year, World Cup fans; bring extra cash for our hookers to steal from you!
The hotel was quick to get video out showing the women bouncing from room to room in slight clothing to prove their security was strong up until the moment mostly-naked women socially engineered their way past the locks. Because, you know, that won’t be a problem during the World Cup, either.
Everyone connected with the tourney, protecting their own interests, are mumbling and looking to the sky, hoping everyone can just move along so this can be forgotten in a week. The police, however, were not so shy about making it clear that people engaged in one type of crime may not be shy about committing another type.

the usa may have sacked us… but overall we played an awesome tournament… im happy for my team im proud of them…
As for the hookers… i would like to point out 2 things… firstly its the players private life… they do what they do… as long as they just come on the pitch and do their job i dont care what they do in their spare time… secondly i know my countries players to be very good and polite men so i have high doubts about it… We played Spain in santiago bernabau stadium…. we were in fucking spain… you would think the players would have got hookers from there… being as it has the hottest women… you think they would pass an oppertunity like spain then go and get south african hookers…. i dont think so.

I think clearly that South African media is trying to cover up the theft occurred in that hotel. Insecurity is famous aspect of everyday life in SA and one of its major problems and may be biggest concern from Fifa and all the world re world cup being held there. I trust Egyptian players have not got any hookers and if got some, is it logic that all 5 rooms got rob the same way without one single player got suspicious about any wrong doing or bad move from a girl??? Instead of doing movies SA has lot to do to become safe as we all wish one day. Tks.

does that mean hotels in south africa allow hookers in the rooms??? that easy???? well…good reputation for south africa published from that newspaper…fifa liaisons with egyptian team knew about it and didnt report??….that newspaper shud be closed…or else..they will face hell in courts…egyptian team are all playing as one team…they pray togather…live togather..!!
am dissapointed to know about low security measures in south africa..instead of finding the thiefs…they create a false story and spread it

I cannot believe you would go this far, to ruin their reputation by your false accusations, instead of fixing your theft problems which unfortunately south africa is known for by the way, and its a known fact that you cannot walk in the streets os south africa without a security, its even amazing that world cup will take place overthere, I really think you should post an apology or other wize you'll be facing international courts very soon

Egyptian players Impossible to do such act and of the famous in South Africa is the abnormally incidence of theft. What Newspaper and others say this is absolutely false, because if there is any thefts act to players will be the position of South Africa for the next World Cup 2010 is very critical

The robbery of the Brazilian team proves the innocence of the Egyptian players from the false news from SAn officers which was insult of the SAn government and security of hotels they try to hide the bad image of SA by creating a very silly and stupid story specially the robbery was done during the match with italy and the egyptian tv channel EL Hayah was covering the players coming back to the hotel and interviewed them till 2:00 am and left them in their rooms and chairman of egyptian federation stays at the same floor with the players so there is no way to party without his observation. The last thing i need to say that i was a great supporter of SA to organize the world cup but I'm really disappointed with their comment but the truth can't be hidden for long time.
