“I become unhappy whenever I see any club pay hefty fees to sign a player who subsequently doesn’t produce the goods,” Hassan told the post-match press conference.
“Masri have a limited transfer budget, but the club still managed to impress after signing three players for moderate prices.”
“We signed the players who we really needed,” Hassan, who helped Masri retain their top-flight status last season after replacing Portuguese coach Juan Alves, added.

Diminutive left-back Shedid impressed against his former club, Ahli.
He set up Mohamed Gaber for the opener in the first half before wrapping up the victory himself with six minutes remaining.
