CAIRO: Ahly coach Manuel Jose asked the Egyptian Football Association (EFA) to postpone his team s League game against Ismaili on Sept. 29.
The Ismaili clash will come six days ahead of Ahly s crucial tie against Nigeria s Enyimba in the CAF Champions League semi-final.
EFA should postpone Ismaili s game to give us more time ahead of the exhausting Nigeria trip, Jose told Ahly s official website on Monday.
The Portuguese expressed his dismay after earlier Facing Arab Contractors on a Saturday, just three days after eight Ahly players featured for Egypt against Sudan on a Wednesday night.
EFA should be more supportive, especially that we are Egypt s only representative in the African competition.
The Red Devils will be next up against Petrojet in another postponed league game on Sept. 25.
