R280 000 fine each for Pitso Mosimane and his Al Ahly crew after cup defeat
El Khatib, who is popularly known as “Bibo”, has imposed a fine of 300 000 Egyptian pounds on each member of the Al Ahly playing personnel and the technical team led by coach Pitso Mosimane.
Mosimane’s side went down 4-3 on penalties after the two sides laboured to a goalless draw throughout regulation time and extra time.In a statement released by Al Ahly, El Khatib said he had decided to “impose a 300K fine on Al Ahly players, director of football and the coaching staff after the disappointing performance in the Egyptian Super Cup on Tuesday, despite the great support that the team receives to achieve titles and meet the expectations of the fans”.
The setback of losing the league title to bitter rivals Zamalek last month did not sit well with Bibo, despite his constant declarations of support for Mosimane, who has guided the Egyptian powerhouse to five trophies since his appointment almost a year ago. Here [at Al Ahly] if you don’t win the Champions League and you don’t win the league, you might as well try to look elsewhereBut the loss to Egyptian Cup runners-up El Gaish, who finished eighth last season, seems to have drawn the ire of the club’s boss.
