Egypt open their World Cup qualifying campaign with an easy 2-0 victory over Mozambique on Friday.
Looking highly affected by lack of domestic action, a toothless Egypt side hardly troubled Mozambique in the first half.
Egypt notably improved after the interval, and were revitalized by the second-half introduction of Zidan, who is set to leave Bundesliga side Mainz in the summer.
The Pharaohs� pressure paid dividends in the 56th minute when towering central defender Ahmed Hegazy, who is set to join Serie A side Fiorentina, nodded a cross into the path of the unmarked Fathallah at the far post to slot home.
Zidan doubled the lead three minutes past the hour mark when he nipped in between two defenders to collect a pass from Temsah and send a left-foot shot that struck the post before deflecting off Kampango�s back and into the net.
Egypt took their foot off the gas pedal afterwards but their win was never in doubt.
