Bani Yas will have to change their attacking strategy following the injury blow of forward Mohamed Zidan, revealed coach Jozef Chovanec. Zidan's league debut with Bani Yas lasted no more than 30 minutes after the Egypt forward tore his hamstring in the 2-0 defeat to Al-Shabab last week. He is facing over four weeks on the sidelines as Chovanec's team prepare for the second game against Ittihad on Friday. “We miss Zidan. He is an important member of our attack and losing him so early for a long time is painful," the Czech manager said. “I think his absence could make things more difficult for us in terms of attack. “I was forced to make some changes in our strategy due to Zidan's absence, in addition to the mediocre level of performance we have shown in the previous game."
