Veteran goalkeeper Essam El Hadary is “eyeing history” with an Egypt side that is close to qualifying to World Cup, FIFA.com reports. “At the heart of Egypt’s bid to end a lengthy barren run is El Hadary, an age-defying shot-stopper who has so far enjoyed a glittering career but is still hungry for more success — most notably an elusive World Cup appearance.” El Hadary would be the oldest player to play in the World Cup should Egypt qualify.
