Details: Speaking to MBC Masr, the former Zamalek manager said it’s difficult to fairly assess a coach like Riveiro based on such a tournament. Moreover, he believes the Spaniard actually did a decent job.
Quote: “It’s very hard to judge a coach like Riveiro based on a high-level tournament like the Club World Cup. He faced top-tier opponents, and his match management was quite solid,” Galal said.
