Telecom Egypt coach Helmi Toulan voiced his dissatisfaction with the security measures in the 2-1 away loss to Ismaili.

The tactician told Modern T.V the coaching staff was attacked by the home side fans right after the match, whereas the security men ran away immediately.

"What happened after the game was a farce, the spectators went down to the pitch and beat up the technical staff members," Toulan said.

"What was even more astonishing is that the security men, whose job is to protect us, left us high and dry."

Apart from the unpleasant post-match incidents, the angry boss hit out at referee Mohamed Hanafi, who presided over Thursday's game.

The former Masri coach believes Hanafi was deliberately biased against the his outfit.

"He wanted us to lose the game right from the start. All the decisions he made were completely absurd," he sneered.

"These were no common mistakes, he was helping the coastal club claim an undeserved victory."

He also implied that the referee was afraid of the hosts' aggressive fans, therefore wasn't impartial.

"The Egyptian Football Association has to assign competent referees, who don't get affected by the crowds' jeers or chants," he added.
