Congo is not easy by any means. From now on, all the matches should be treated like cup (finals) and we have to take every game one at a time. ... We do not underrate Congo. We have seen them play.

Because I am the coach.

No it is you who is the donkey.

Hassan is someone you can depend on to raise the team's spirit. He might not play a main role on the pitch but we need him to lead the team during the competition.

Whoever thinks the match against DR Congo is easy is mistaken. All the teams that qualified to the second round are strong and have a shot at the title.

Morale is very high after all the victories and with the crazy support we'll have, we're going to do everything we can to win.

This great achievement is dedicated to the Egyptian fans who stood by the national team. God always rewards those who perfect what they do and we exerted huge efforts to win the championship until this dream came true.
