Journalist Saif Zaher Criticizes Pyramids Goalkeeper Sherif Ekrami Amid Controversy

Journalist Saif Zaher recently attacked Pyramids goalkeeper‍ Sherif Ekrami on the “X” social media platform, following a statement made by former Al-Ahly player Ahmed Bilal about Zamalek.

Ahmed Bilal sparked‌ controversy‍ with his statements downplaying Zamalek’s⁣ chances of⁢ victory against Al-Ahly in the African Super Championship. He later apologized for‍ his comments.

Saif Zaher expressed his opinion on the matter⁣ during an appearance on On Time‌ Sports 1 channel. ⁣He stated, “Sherif Ekrami made a mistake by bringing Bilal on stage and apologizing.”

Zaher continued, “The⁢ timing of⁢ the post was​ not ideal. Although the ​content was accurate and⁤ respectful, it was not ⁢suitable⁣ for that moment.”

He further ​explained, “The audience’s ⁢reaction was⁤ telling. They parted with Sherif Ekrami and Ahmed Bilal, indicating a lack of success in their approach.”

Zaher‌ emphasized the importance of constructive criticism, ⁢saying, “If I⁤ see that‌ my colleague’s player is not successful, I will pick up the phone and offer‍ my advice.⁤ In this‍ case, Ahmed⁢ Bilal did not succeed, and Sherif Ekrami’s apology did not succeed either.”
