Intense Competition Between Tawfiq Mohamed and Koka for Al Ahly's Left Side
Hussein Ammouta is closely monitoring the duo's performance during the upcoming training sessions, especially since the coaching staff aims to reach the best possible lineup to face Zamalek, relying on the most prepared players after the international break.
Tawfiq Mohamed provides an additional option for the coaching staff on the left side, while Koka has more experience in this position, making the competition between them open until the match day, with the decision to be made based on each player's performance during training.
The coaching staff is working during the international break to increase the physical load on the players, in addition to implementing some technical and tactical drills, aiming to prepare the team for upcoming matches, including the clash against Petrojet in the Cairo Cup and then the match against Zamalek in the league.
The coming period is expected to witness more technical tests for the duo, especially with Ammouta's desire to ensure the readiness of all players before settling on the starting lineup for the big match.
The match between Al Ahly and Zamalek will take place on October 11 at 8 PM at Cairo Stadium, as part of the sixth round of the Premier League, while Al Ahly is also preparing for its commitments in the Cairo Cup and the CAF Confederation Cup.
