Soccer-Kuwaiti side deceived into facing amateur team in friendly, media say

(Reuters) - Kuwaiti Premier League club Kazma were delighted to get a 7-1 friendly victory over Egyptian opponents Telephonat Beni Suef -- until they discovered that their rivals in the match were a group of amateur players unconnected with the Egyptian side.

Organisers of the game at Kazma's training camp in the Egyptian city of Alexandria apologised, saying they had been deceived into thinking the rival team represented the Beni Suef side, who play in Egypt's third tier.
