Egyptian centre back Abdel Zaher El Saka was the man of the match in this weekend's clash between Genclerbirligi and Sakaryaspor. However, El Saka and Ayman's club failed to win the home game.

The game took place at Genclebirligi's home turf and it appeared to be an easy game on paper as Sakaryaspor is fighting against relegation and occupy the 16th spot in the table while Gencler is currently in the midtable.

Despite this, the game was only easy on paper as the guests gave Gencler a hard time as they appeared to be the better and the more dangerous side.

Egyptian players El Saka and Ayman Abdel Aziz played the full game. El Saka played in his regular position in the heart of defense while Ayman played as defensive midfielder. Ayman showed a solid performance while El Saka was rated as the best player on the field.

The game ended in a goal-less draw as both sides failed to covert any of the chances. The result was poor for Gencler as they remained 8th in the table. There is still a hope for Ayman and El Saka's side to earn a UEFA cup spot if they improved their league form in the coming matches. With some effort and luck, they could earn themselves a place in Europe's 2nd competition.
