Egyptian Cup: Krunoslav Jurcic announces Pyramids squad ahead of Petrojet SC clash

Pyramids FC head coach Krunoslav Jurcic has named his squad for Tuesday night’s Egyptian Cup quarter-final clash against Petrojet SC.

The Cairo-based side will travel to the Petrosport Stadium for the 9:30 pm kickoff, as they continue their pursuit of domestic silverware.

Jurcic has opted for a balanced squad, blending experience with attacking depth across all departments.

In goal, Ahmed El Shenawy leads the options alongside Mahmoud Gad and veteran Sherif Ekramy.

The defensive unit features Ahmed Sami, Osama Galal, Mohamed El Sheibi, Mahmoud Marei, and Mohamed Hamdi Ibrahim.

Midfield responsibilities will be shared among Mohannad Lasheen, Mahmoud Zalaka, Nasser Maher, Awda Fakhoury, Mustafa Zico, Everton Da Silva, Hamed Hamdan, Pascal Ferre, Ahmed Tawfik, Ahmed Atef Qatta, and Mostafa Fathi.

Up front, the attacking trio includes Fiston Mayele, Youssef Obama, and Dodo El-Gabbas.

Pyramids head into the cup fixture on the back of a solid continental outing, having secured a 1-1 draw away to AS FAR Rabat in the first leg of their CAF Champions League quarter-final tie.
