Arab Contractors coach Mohamed Radwan believes that his team could have defeated Zamalek on Wednesday if it wasn't for the heroics of Abdul-Wahed Al-Sayed.

The White Knights salvaged one point after drawing with the Mountain Wolves 1-1 in the Egyptian Premier League, and the in-form goalie prevented the hosts from scoring more than once.

"We put in a great performance as we usually do against Zamalek, but we failed to seal a victory," Radwan told the post-match press conference.

"Abdul-Wahed was brilliant; he's the reason why we couldn't win all three points.

"We squandered a myriad of scoring opportunities, but all in all I'm satisfied with our display."

On the other hand, Zamalek assistant manager Sami Al-Sheshini blamed his team's lackluster performance on the league recently-ended break as well as the absence of several key figures.

"It was a good game, but this is not our best form," he stated. "The mid-season break affected the players' fitness, and we also had to do without five regulars.

"The lack of action made the team lose concentration; we were on the winning ways right before the one-month break, which caused us to ease off."
