Ahli manager Manuel Jose emerged victorious from the Cairo derby but he couldn't avoid one of his renowned anger outbreaks in the post-match press conference. Jose's side labored to a 2-0 victory over Zamalek in the Egyptian League on Friday, to open up an 18-point gap on top of the table. "Zamalek wanted to spoil our fete. But even if they could beat us, this wouldn't deprive us from our triumphant mood," Jose said. "We won't lose the league unless we all died," the controversial Portuguese added. A question over why Jose doesn't give opportunities to young talents despite already securing the title triggered an unexpected outburst. "You keep on asking this question over and over," yelled Jose.
I am not a woman. I am a man! Manuel Jose "You want to me to leave the team but I will not. I won today and I will against all of you. "I am not a woman. I am a man!" He then stood up, taking off his jacket and looked on his way out of the press room before calming down a bit. Jose denounced the attempt of Zamalek's Gamal Hamza to win a spot-kick after taking the pitch in the second period. Hamza demanded a penalty after going down under the slightest contact from Ahli keeper Amir Abdul-Hamid. Italian referee Stefano Farina cautioned the striker for diving. "It is not the first time for him," Jose said. "But the referee was fair and had it right."
