It looks like the Man Upstairs heeded the call from a Cairo pressbox as Egypt's fightin' Pharaohs scored on virtually the last kick of the game to level the two-leg World Cup qualifying series with Algeria.

A 'sudden death' rematch takes place Wednesday on neutral ground in Sudan, where they've witnessed a few sudden deaths in recent years. Inshallah (that means 'hopefully' folks!) there won't be chaos. Both coaches have appealed for calm to fans, but its unclear if Vodafone will be able to deliver that message.
