Books – Mustafa Al-Gretli:
The Confederation of African Football Confederation (CAF) has chosen Algerian referee Mostafa Ghorbal to direct the final of the African Champions League between Zamalek and Al-Ahly, scheduled for Friday at 9:00 p.m. at the Cairo International Stadium.
Ghorbal is not considered a new face for the fans of the two clubs, so Al-Ahly ruled his match in Burj Al Arab against his counterpart Township Betswani in the third round of the group stage of the African Champions League 2017 / 2018, and ended with Al-Ahly winning three times, while he was a video judge in the semi-final first leg of the current version of Zamalek’s African Champions League against Moroccan Raja ended with Zamalek’s victory with a clean goal.
But his match, which he led as a video referee for the match between Zamalek and Al-Raja, did not go unnoticed, so the Moroccan club sent a message of protest and denounce the African Football Confederation, within the framework of a “disastrous arbitration by part of the refereeing team “- according to the description of an official statement issued by him – who directed the first leg of the African Champions League semifinals Led by Allium Nyant as referee and Mustafa Ghorbal as video referee.”
During the course of the 35-year sieve, he used 4 direct red cards during his matches, with 3 cards in the first leg and one in the second leg, while 162 yellow cards were awarded, with 72 cards in the first leg and 90 in the return matches, while 19 penalty shots were awarded. On the way out and 8 on the return.
