Mikali’s statements after the loss to Morocco
The duration of our work with the youth national team did not exceed 14 days during the period of only one month during which we assumed responsibility, and we succeeded greatly in excelling and controlling without complete positivity on the goal, unlike the competitor, who explained his formation period, which exceeded two years, and the number of large friendlies he played, and the referee cannot be criticized, but We can say there are big question marks.
Mikali stressed that Egypt has a promising young generation with distinguished elements. We missed many of them in today’s match, most notably Salim Talab, a professional in Hertha Berlin, who suffered a direct injury in the first minutes of the match, and the player Mohamed Abdullah, who was injured during Al-Ahly’s training and stayed away from the tournament.
