Former Zamalek star calls for special treatment for Mohamed Salah

Ahmed Abdel Halim, former Zamalek SC star, believes Egypt's emphatic victory over South Sudan by five goals to nil was logical. He emphasized that the Pharaohs' true focus should now be on securing the Africa Cup of Nations title as an irreplaceable goal.

Ahmed Abdel Halim stated in remarks to the Zamalek program that Egypt's friendly match against South Africa will be stronger than the matches against Angola and Sudan, and it will be an important test for the national team during the current break.

The global stature of Egypt captain Mohamed Salah as one of the game's legends is highlighted, emphasizing the importance of providing a suitable environment and exceptional treatment to ensure his extraordinary abilities are optimally utilized for the national team.

A former Zamalek SC star has stated that African national teams have developed significantly in recent years, which could lead to surprises in the qualifiers for the Africa Cup of Nations.

Egypt achieved a significant victory over South Sudan with a score of 5-0 on Tuesday at Juba Stadium, in the second round of the Africa Cup of Nations 2027 qualifiers.
