‘Pitso Is Better Than New Ahly Coach Koller’

Former Egypt defender Ahmed Dowidar claims new Al Ahly head coach Marcel Koller is not better than Pitso Mosimane.

Dowidar made the claim in the wake of their recent penalty shoot-out win over Al Mokalwoon after the 1-1 draw in regulation time.

The result moved them into the semi-finals where they could meet Zamalek, Pyramids or Smouha but the ex-White Knights defender has not been impressed.

“Al Mokawloon were able to achieve victory if they had taken advantage of the chance that was presented to them in the first half through El-Shimy,” he said, as per KingFut.

“The Contractors didn’t believe they could beat Al Ahly. The red shirt causes fear for the teams in Egypt.

“If the Contractors had the courage, they would have achieved an easy victory over Al Ahly.

“I see that Al Ahly with Marcel Koller are yet to provide the best technical level, and in my opinion, Pitso Mosimane is better than Koller.”

The Swiss tactician has won five of his opening five games in charge of Ahly since succeeding Ricardo Soares.
