A new mission for Zamalek when he faces his rival Tala’a El-Geish, this evening, Saturday, within the framework of the sixth round matches of the Egyptian We League competition.
Zamalek enters the meeting, raising the winning slogan first, in order to continue the competition at the top early, especially after Al-Ahly’s victory over Ceramica Cleopatra in the week’s matches with a score (2-0).
Zamalek is looking for the third victory in a row to reach the 13th point and equal with Al-Ahly with the same balance, but this ambition will clash with the desire of the Al-Jaish team to correct the path, especially after the departure of Tariq Al-Ashry and the return of Abdel Hamid Bassiouni to the technical leadership again.
Zamalek will have three challenges that it seeks to overcome in the Tala’a Al-Jaish match during today’s meeting, and this is what we will review in the following lines:
The Grail’s Revenge:
In the last confrontation between the two teams in general, Zamalek met the Talaia El-Geish team in the semi-final round of the Egypt Cup competition in the last edition.
The army team took advantage of Zamalek’s situation well, as Al-Abyad lost the opportunity to win the CAF Champions League title after losing to his rivals Al-Ahly with two goals to one goal, so the military team dealt another blow to the sons of the dead, an obstacle that was to beat him with a score (3-1), to lose the white knight An opportunity to defend its title against Al-Tale’i ‘qualifying for the Cup final for the first time in its history.
The node of the first round:
Since the rise of Al-Jaysh to the league competition, Zamalek has faced 33 occasions, with 30 matches in the league competition and three matches in the Egypt Cup competition.
It is noteworthy during the history of the two teams’ confrontations that the Talaia Al-Jaish team achieved seven victories over Zamalek in the league during the first round stage, so the beginning was in the 2006-2007 season, with two goals without a response within the fourth week.
In the 2007-2008 season, Talaia Al-Jaish defeated Zamalek with two goals to one in the sixth week, and in the next season and in the eighth round, Tala’a Al-Jaish outdid one goal without a response.
Season (2009 – 2010) And in the fifth round, Talaia Al-Jaysh renewed its superiority over Zamalek by winning one goal without response, and after the absence of Al-Talaa team, it returned to achieve a dramatic victory over Zamalek by three goals against two in the season (2015-2016).
The “first round” complex continued with Zamalek also in the (2017-2018) season, with a loss from Al-Tale’aa Al-Jaish with an unanswered goal. Last season, and in the framework of the eighth round, he managed to win Al-Talaei (3-2).
Facing Qaher Zamalek:
If we talk about facing Zamalek and the army, Ahmed Samir, the former white player and the current Al-Talaa, will be at the top of the headlines due to the goals he scored against his former team, the last of them in the last Egypt Cup match when he scored two goals.
The 26-year-old met Zamalek on nine occasions, including five matches with Talaia Al-Jaish, during which he scored six goals.
Ahmed Samir is considered one of the most prominent pillars of the Al-Jaysh team, especially this season, where he is the team’s top scorer with three goals, in addition to his making two goals.
Al-Jaysh team suffers during this season at the level of results, as it only scored a point after tying in the first round against El Gouna with a score (1-1) in exchange for four consecutive defeats, which made Tariq Al Ashry leave the team.
