Egypt U-20 team earned a dramatic 3-3 draw with South Korea in a warm-up meeting ahead of this year's World Cup finals on home soil.

The home side went ahead after 19 minutes in Alexandria with a penalty from Hossam Farahat, but Kim Young-Wook equalized for Korea in the 30th minute.

Zamalek youngster Farahat restored Egypt's lead five minutes after the break, but Kim leveled again in the 70th minute before completing his hat-trick on 80 minutes.

Five minutes from time, Ahli new signing Mohamed Talaat grabbed the third for Miroslav Soukup's team to secure the draw.

Egypt, who were thrashed 4-1 by the Koreans a few days ago, will play another double-header with Spain later this month.
