Both of them Abdennour Iheb Belhocini's — 8.98
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.98, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Tempers go at Wadi Degla
Franck Boli was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.
Match19 Sep 2026
6 unbeaten for Wadi Degla
Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 6 matches without defeat is a foundation Wadi Degla did not have in the autumn.

Words at Wadi Degla training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Achraf Lazaar is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Wadi Degla see off Ghazl El Mahalla
Three points for Wadi Degla, 2‑1 the final word against Ghazl El Mahalla in a contest settled by the finer margins.
Squad21 Sep 2026
No hiding place for Flavio Santos
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Flavio Santos, and the manager let it.
Squad21 Sep 2026
Flavio Santos dropped after a run of poor form
The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.

Ahmed Farouk could not find anything
5.71. Every footballer has these and most of them happen away from a full ground; his did not, and he will be aware of that all week.
