Al-Ahly coach Jose Ribero, the coach of Al-Ahly, explained the reason for making 11 changes during the friendly match that the team fought against the Mexican Pachuca in the early hours of this morning, Monday, and ended with Al-Ahly’s loss 3-5 with a penalty shootout.
“The goal of this friendly was to identify the capabilities of the players, especially since I assumed the responsibility of training the team a few days ago, so all my goal was to collect information about the team in a way that is more important than achieving other gains.”
Al -Ahly coach added, “I pushed nearly 22 players in the match with the aim of getting to know them closely, and there are other players who did not have the conditions to give them the opportunity, most notably Khaled Abdel -Fattah, Yahya Attia Allah and Ahmed Reda.”
He continued, “The match started with 11 players and I got 11 seconds for the team to collect the largest amount of information about the team and the players … At the same time, it was not useful to play with a final formation because this will reveal the opponents that we will play in the tournament.”.
And he added, “We have centers in the team, like the north, and we have 3 players, so that the time is given to the participation of Ahmed Reda, Khaled Abdel -Fattah and Yahya Attia Allah.”.
