Al-Hadari's departure left Ahli in goalkeeping crisis

Essam Al-Hadari is dealing well with the Ghana 2008 official match ball 'Wawa Aba', according to his trainer Ahmed Soliman.

The Egypt goalkeeping coach sang the Ahli guardian's praises after he earned himself a clean sheet against Sudan on Saturday.

"Al-Hadari was in good shape in the Sudan game, he is dealing well with the new ball, which is very deceiving," Soliman told Egyptian TV.

"He is training hard and we are working extensively with the ball every day."

Al-Hadari was called into action more than three times in the first half of Egypt's 3-0 victory, but the Sudanese efforts went in vain.

Wawa Aba has caused a lot of problems to keepers so far in the competition, but it prompted to some wonderful goals as well, especially from distance.
