Hossam El-Badry, the coach of the Egyptian national team, said that he had achieved his main goal of officially qualifying for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, but stressed at the same time that the team needed a lot of adjustment and development.
Hossam Al-Badri told FilGoal.com, saying: “I thank God for qualifying us and achieving our first goals, but there are definitely a lot of things that need development.”
He continued: “I thank all the players despite the great fatigue and the meeting of the national team in different periods, but we prepared for the match in a short time, and most importantly, we achieved our goal of officially qualifying for the African Cup of Nations.. “
Al-Badri added: “With the passage of time there are many things that will change.”
On the Comoros meeting next Monday, he said: “We will give some new faces the opportunity to add new elements to the Egyptian national team.”
Al-Badri completed his remarks, “I said before that this stage is difficult due to the pressure of the matches for local or professional players, but we have achieved our goal and I thank you all, and the next one is better.”
In press statements made by Al-Badri later, he said: “The players of Al-Ahly, Zamalek and Pyramids are experiencing great stress and pressure in the matches, which affected their level in addition to the lack of oxygen in Kenya. “
Al-Badri emphasized: “I am not looking for any justification, but I am speaking realistically and I certainly wanted to win the meeting.”
He added, “Muhammad Al-Nani and Mahmoud Hassan,” Trezeguet, “participated in morning training only before traveling to Kenya, and Ahmed Hegazy trained only once with us.”
Regarding Muhammad Al-Nani’s non-participation in the meeting, Al-Badri said: “These are team-specific things and it is possible to participate in the next meeting.”
The Egyptian team drew with Kenya, with a positive goal, in the fifth round of the qualifying rounds for the 2021 African nations, to secure formal qualification for the tournament.
The Egyptian team needs to win or a goalless draw with the Comoros to secure the top of Group G.
