Pitso Mosimane, Al Ahly’s head coach, spoke in the post-match press conference about the team’s 2-1 victory over Wadi Degla in the Egyptian Premier League.

Here is what Mosimane had to say about the game: 

“We don’t have to sound intelligent and say we changed things in half-time. We did exactly the same thing as the first half, however, the difference is that we decided to score goals. In the first half, we missed several chances.”

“Wadi Degla is a very good team. They create problems for you when they attack. They are very aggressive in attack and they are fearless. You have to make sure to close the spaces. However, to be honest, they were very open in the back.”

“I told my team in half-time is that we have to take the opportunities that we create. What wasn’t good is that we still were playing under pressure after scoring the second goal. We need to be more relaxed. That is my role as a coach."

Mosimane concluded his post-match press conference by stating that despite having several absences in the last period; however, the team was able to achieve the objective and be on the top of the table.
