The Egyptian football team has praised security at the Confederations Cup despite complaining that personal belongings were stolen from their hotel rooms.

The team’s management and ambassador to South Africa faced the media at a press conference in Sandton yesterday. While 2010 Organizing Committee Chairperson Danny Jordaan assured the team the incident would be investigated.

“You leave this country with your integrity intact, we celebrated the performance of your team and players and you must go home understanding that we will continue to focus on the issue at hand and whether or not a criminal act was perpetrated, said Jordaan.

The Egyptian footballers have yet to speak about whether the prostitutes were responsible for the theft as claimed in media reports.
