Morocco’s humiliation of Egypt still causes controversy

Former Egyptian international Ahmed Hossam alias “Mido” expressed his dissatisfaction after the heavy defeat of the Egyptian Olympic team against the Atlas Lions (0-6) in the classification match of the football tournament of the Paris Olympic Games, praising however the merits of the Moroccan team which achieved a historic feat by winning its first Olympic medal.

“Unfortunately, our defeat against Morocco is a shame, but it is a realistic shame!!,” Mido wrote in a post on X. He added: “It is a shame that reflects the huge difference between a football school that has started to lose its identity and a football school that has known how to develop.”
