Liverpool’s Egyptian forward, Mohamed Salah, once a prominent figure at Zamalek, has praised the recent performance of the team in their encounter against Al-Ahly Benghazi, highlighting the coach’s appropriate choice of lineup for the match.
Speaking on the “Zamalkawy” program aired on Zamalek TV channel, Salah remarked, “Zamalek started the match against Al-Ahly Benghazi threatening their opponent’s goal, and in the first half, the White Knights completely dominated the game.”
He added, “The new signings for Zamalek need more time to integrate with the rest of the players, and Motayba appeared remarkably confident and bold.”
Salah also emphasized, “I hope Zizo gets rested in the next match to prevent aggravating his injury, and we can assess the team overall in the Egypt Cup final.”
The Egyptian forward’s comments come after Zamalek secured a vital win against Al-Ahly Benghazi in the CAF Confederation Cup, showing promising signs of improvement under the management of coach Jose Gomez.
Salah’s acknowledgment of the team’s progress reflects a sentiment shared by many fans who have witnessed Zamalek’s resurgence in recent matches.
The strategic choices made by the coaching staff and the promising performances of new signings like Motayba have instilled confidence among supporters ahead of crucial fixtures, including the Egypt Cup final.
