Firing 1998 Champions coach Gohary might not have been the best idea. Although Egypt did leave a solid impression, the tools the team was using to take apart the opponents did not seem as sharp as two years before when a masterly prepared squad won the African Nations Cup.
In the end Egypt lost through a penalty in a tough tactical match against North African counterparts Tunisia, always a special match. 
So that it can as well be considered a rather academic question whether they had done better if Gohary had continued his work.
