Egypt’s Zamalek lost to its traditional rivals, Al-Ahly, by 3 goals, in the local league competitions. The defeat led to the general supervisor of football in the team, Amir Mortada Mansour, submitting his resignation to the club’s board of directors.
The “Royal” is headed by his father, Mortada Mansour, who talked about making changes in the club soon, and the fans expect the coach to pack his bags, because it is customary for him to take responsibility for such defeats.
The chairman of the board talked about the existence of “magic” work for the team to prevent it from winning over other teams, and this is not the first time that Mansour has talked about the presence of magic after almost every defeat.
And the episode (23/1/2023) of the “Networks” program monitored the interaction on Egyptian communication platforms with Mansour’s speech, if Kawthar Khairy demanded that those around Mansour stop listening to him, so she wrote, “The thing I like most about Mortada is that he believes himself. Those around him only drum. And they shake their heads, it means a shame when you are captains and journalists and keep listening to us, we lost by magic.”
Walid Hafez commented sarcastically on the speech of the president of Zamalek, saying, “Al-Khatib (president of Al-Ahly Club) is a black magic worker on the hip of a male lizard and buried him in the belly of the bear.”
Mustafa Ibrahim, in turn, believes that the goals that hit Zamalek’s net have the effect of magic, as he tweeted, “The only one who expects what will happen in the match is Mortada Mansour. He told you that there is magic, and his words are 100% correct. 3 goals really have the effect of magic.”
Muhammad Al-Ghandour called for the need to correct the club’s path, and wrote, “Zamalek is very happy, Zamalek is very upset, this is the year of life. Encouraging Zamalek wants its men to defend it and correct the path.”
Mansour’s conference after the match witnessed another situation, as Mustafa Goueli, head of the club’s media system, was expelled.
