Egyptian
player and super sub Mohamed Zidan is over the moon
with Egypt's win in the ACN final. Zizou revealed that
he had a dream about the final a day before the final
in which Egypt won and he is delighted that his dream
come true.
In a phone call interview on ModernSport
channel with Mohamed Zidan, the Egyptian revealed that
he dreamt of lifting the cup the night before the match.
"The night before the match, I had
a dream about the final, we won and celebrated the victory.
I felt we will do it in reality and we did".
"We proved to everyone that Egypt
is the strongest team in Africa". added the delighted
Zidan.
"I came here to Ghana against the
will of my coach and my club but now they will realise
why I wanted to come here".
"They (Hamburger SV) watched the
tournament especially the final. I can say that I will
go back proud to Germany
".
"I wished to be in the game from the start as everyone
who was on bench but it doesn't matter much who starts and
who doesn't. This achievement is for everyone".
"I came on and felt that Song will make
a mistake, I kept chasing him and challenging him and thank
God, I got the ball".
"In my mind I was trying to get the ball
and go on goal, didn't see Abotreka at start but in a fraction
of second, he came from behind in a good position to score
and I gave him the ball to score and win the ACN for us".
