Aliou Cissé, the head coach of the Angola national team, has clarified the existence of any disagreement with Hossam Hassan, the head coach of the Egypt national team, after the match that took place between the two teams on Friday evening in the Africa Cup of Nations Qualification.

Egypt and Angola played to a goalless draw in their Africa Cup of Nations Qualification match on Friday evening.

The Senegalese head coach denied any tension or disagreement with Hossam Hassan, emphasizing that the relationship between the two is based on mutual respect and appreciation during his statements at the post-match press conference.

Cissé stated: "There is no disagreement between me and Hossam Hassan, the head coach of the Egypt national team, and we both have great respect and appreciation for each other," emphasizing that what happened on the pitch did not affect the relationship between the two coaching staffs.
