On behalf of all soccer fans,
On behalf of those who paid tickets, drove to the stadium and made arrangements,
on behalf of those who make gatherings around soccer games,
on behalf of the children who want to watch their heroes in action,
On behalf of the people who believe that Egypt might one day play international
soccer with the best of the best,
A few hours before the Ahly v Zamalek game,
Let's pray that the Zamalek does not chuck another tantrum a few minutes after
the game starts, because they are not happy with the referee/the way they are
playing, as they did last time (and refuse to continue the game.)
Let's also hope that the referee who refereed the last Zamalek game (let's not
mention any names,)is not refereeing as he did in the last game with the
Zamalek,
otherwise the game will be one penalty kick after a yellow/red card, for every
player who tries to take the ball off the Zamalek.
Let's pray that a real game takes place that makes all Egyptians proud,
regardless of wins or loses.
Let's hope that soccer fans are the winners, as opposed to last time.
Let's all make a heart felt plea - please play properly!!!
