Zamalek coach Henri Michel cut short his post-match press conference following his side's 3-2 Egyptian Premier League victory over Military Production on Saturday.

The Frenchman was initially infuriated when a reporter asked him why does he change his starting line-up every game.

"There is nothing called a fixed line-up," Michel replied without further elaboration.

The same reporter repeated the question in hope that the former France manager would discuss the matter in more details, but he only managed to incur his wrath.

Michel, who said earlier that Zamalek still needed work to improve their displays after snapping a three-match winless streak, consequently left the conference room after just eight minutes.

The Cairo giants' third league victory in eight games will ease the pressure on the 61-year-old boss, who risked the sack after a dismal run under his guidance.

Zamalek, who won the last of their 11 league titles in 2004, lie fifth in the 16-team table on 11 points, six behind leaders and arch-rivals Ahli who have a game in hand.
