Essam Salem talked about the loss of easy opportunities in front of the goal and the need to know the non-technical reasons that led to this, which Jamie Pacheco, the coach of the team, talked about.
FilGoal.com reviews with you what Essam Salem said during an interview with Ontime Sports 1.
1- “The draw with Tigris is disappointing by all accounts. We lost 9 points in 13 games and I think this is not appropriate for a team that wants to win the league after a long wait.”
2- “When we lose from Al-Mahalla, a promoter of the second division, and we draw with the last-placed Tigris and draw with Aswan, there must be a pause with the team.”
3- “I went to the pharmacy after the match to buy a cure for a headache because the team’s situation has become strange, and it is illogical for so many missed opportunities and losing so many points.”
4- “Pacheco said a very dangerous statement after the match that the loss of opportunities is for non-technical reasons, and this means that the coach has to explain these reasons to us, and just because Pacheco says that the loss of opportunities is for non-technical reasons, we must open this file and investigate the reasons for wasting opportunities.”
5- “There is no fan of Zamalek who is happy with a draw with Wadi Degla because you put yourself in a difficult position by wasting easy opportunities and a penalty kick as well, and the team that wants to win the league should not waste all of these opportunities.”
6- “Zamalek did not score in 3 matches and the crisis is not in Mustafa Mohamed because we scored in many matches in his absence. The situation is strange in the Zamalek team, and a pause must be taken to correct mistakes, correct the course and remedy technical errors.”
7- “Last season, Zamalek lost the league, the Cup and the African Championship, and this season must be corrected.”
8- “History, at the end of the day, does not mention only the results and tournaments, nor does it mention the number of opportunities lost in each match.”
9 – “There is a dialogue between Zamalek and Sporting Lisbon, Portugal, in an initial and friendly attempt to resolve the crisis of Shikabala’s entitlements. It is time to resolve this crisis and definitely start with a friendly dialogue that bridges the distances between the two parties.”
10 – “The Football Association must reconsider the decision by clubs to bear the expenses of medical swabs because the clubs’ financial resources are very weak and it is difficult for us to play against teams that are not subject to smears because the health of the players and the technical and administrative apparatus is of utmost necessity.”
