Pitso Mosimane, Al Ahly’s head coach, expressed his happiness after our 4-0 win over Smouha on Sunday in the domestic league.

“We had a better performance than our last match against Pyramids. We won the game with plenty of goals.”

“It was important to win tonight after a draw against Pyramids and losing two points in the dying moment of the game. Also, I am happy to end the game with a clean sheet.”

“I was so sad after the draw against Pyramids after missing many chances in the game. Today we returned to the winning track.”

“El Shenawy is an important player for us. He was injured in the pre-game training and that is why I decided to replace him at half-time.”

“I also gave more playing time to several players in tonight’s game. I want to make sure that all the players are fit and ready for the next stage of the season.”

“We are not suffering in the right-back position. Akram Tawfik had a great game tonight and he is a perfect replacement for the injured Mohamed Hany.”

“We are expecting a very difficult time after the CAF Champions League final. We will miss six players who will participate in the Olympics. It is not easy to deal with the absence of six players in that stage of the season.”
