Tolan: A Draw is Better Than a Loss Because It Allows Us to Control Our Fate in the Tournament
Helmy Tolan, the assistant coach of the Egyptian national team, spoke about his team's draw with the UAE in the Arab Cup.
The Egyptian national team drew 1-1 with the UAE national team on Saturday evening in the second round of the group stage of the Arab Cup.
The Egyptian national team raised its points to two in Group C and needs to secure a victory in the final round against Jordan in order to qualify for the tournament's quarterfinals.
Tolan said in his post-match statements: "We witnessed a match with limited chances and some tense moments, because both teams know each other's strengths and weaknesses well."
