Mohamed El Shenawy, Al Ahly's goalkeeper, returns to defend the red team's goal against Ugandan side Kitarra in the match scheduled for 7 PM on Sunday at Cairo International Stadium, in the second leg of the CAF Confederation Cup Round of 32. This decision aligns with the rotation strategy employed by Moroccan coach Hussein Ammouta among the goalkeepers.
Ammouta follows a clear approach in distributing opportunities among Al Ahly's goalkeepers, allowing Mohamed El Shenawy to participate in CAF Confederation Cup matches, while relying on Mostafa Shobeir for Egyptian Premier League games, and Hamza Alaa for the Cairo Capital Cup competitions. This strategy aims to keep all three goalkeepers match-ready and provide them with regular playing time.
Ammouta Implements Rotation Policy Among Al Ahly Goalkeepers
The coaching staff at Al Ahly aims through this policy to ensure all goalkeepers are prepared and ready to participate at any moment, especially with the pressure of matches and the variety of competitions the team is involved in this season.
This system provides the three goalkeepers with opportunities to participate and gain match experience while maintaining competition among them, allowing the coaching staff to select the most suitable goalkeeper based on the nature of each tournament and the team's requirements.
