The Aswan Post
Match31 Oct 2026
Aswan taken apart
0‑4 to Zamalek, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Anger at Aswan spills outside the ground
It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

A fracture rules Hossam Arafat out for 39 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Aswan will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Greisha stands alone
7 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.
Match31 Oct 2026
Aswan are shipping goals every week
Two or more conceded in each of the last 8 matches. It is not one mistake repeating itself, which would be the easier thing to fix; it is a different one every week.

Tarik Aoutah in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Aswan this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Belal Ateya is the month’s best young player
At 18 he was better than everybody his age in the division for four weeks running, which is harder than one good afternoon. Aswan will try not to make too much of it.
Boardroom2 Nov 2026
Nobody left the Aswan dressing room in a hurry
The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.
Loan watch2 Nov 2026
Ali Shawky has seen enough of ES Mostaganem
“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Aswan, and 7 appearances in 9 say he has earned the hearing.
In brief
- The dugout Abdallah Tarek answers for it
- The dugout Tarik Aoutah is still paying for one afternoon at Aswan
- Market Talks stall between Aswan and Mujeeb Odifeso
