Zamalek completed a series of friendly games by beating MCDR 3-1 in preparation for next week's league game with Arab Contractors. Ahmed Gaafar, Salah Soliman and Saied Mohamed ‘Otta' scored for the Whites, whereas Fouad Salama netted MCDR's only goal. Defenders Ahmed Samir and Soliman both limped off with injuries and their availability for next match has yet to be determined. Sabri Rahil played the whole game at left-back as he looks set to deputize for the injured Mohamed Abdul-Shafi for his first appearance under Hassan Shehata next week. Zamalek take on Contractors on Wednesday December 14.
