Zamalek’s upcoming clash against Wadi Degla on Monday will mark the dawn of a new era for the Cairo giants. Portuguese coach Jaime Pacheco will start his mission as Zamalek’s coach and he is hoping that he can right the wrongs of the last two games.
After thrashing Talae El-Geish 6-1 in the Egyptian league opener, Zamalek failed to maintain their rhythm as they were held to two goalless draws by Ittihad El-Shorta and Dakhleya.
Given the great expectations from the club’s board, Zamalek’s coach Hossam Hassan was shown the door after the two draws and Pacheco was named the team’s new coach.
The 57-year-old, who arrived in Cairo on Friday, will have to impress the club’s board, which went on a spending spree this summer, bringing in 17 players in order to regain the league title, last won in 2004.
In other matches, Petrojet are looking for their first win with their new coach this season when they host Al-Asyoty Sports, while Smouha will host El-Dakhleya at Alexandria Stadium.
