Al Ahly head coach Pitso Mosimane feels his side dominated the game from start to finish during their comfortable victory over Misr Lel Makkasa in their Egyptian Premier League clash on Tuesday.

A brace by Luis Miquissone and two goals from Hussein El Shahat and Ziad Tarek secured Ahly a 4-0 victory over Misr Lel Makkasa at the Al Ahly WE Al Salam Stadium in Cairo.

After the win, the Red Eagles remain at the top of the Egyptian Premier League standings with 22 points from eight matches, having won seven, drew one game and yet to concede a defeat.

Mosimane praised his players’ performance on the day, singling out  Miquissone and Ramy Rabia.

“We controlled the game from its start to the end. We hope we start like this next match. We scored four goals, and that is good,” Mosimane told his club’s official website.

“We gave the players two days off to rest them after playing in a lot of different competitions during the past few months.

“It’s not easy for players to come and play for Al Ahly. It’s not easy. I’m very happy that Luis Miqiussone scored two goals tonight. The club’s jersey also is a big jersey.

“He’s a good player and we have to support him. I took him out because I wanted to keep him hungry. Also, I’m very happy that Ramy Rabia played very well.

“How do you motivate a player when he plays in the Arab cup, the Africa Cup of Nations, the Caf Super Cup, and then you have the Fifa Club World Cup.

“Also, you come from the Club World Cup and you play in the Caf Champions League. That is enough motivation for any player and if you are not going to be motivated by that, there is nothing bigger than this.”
