هل يستعين الزمالك بمترجم سلوفيني لمواجهة تسجيلات الفار؟
(opens the publisher’s site)The Egyptian FA has refused Zamalek's request to hear VAR audio from the derby against Al Ahly, saying the referee's decisions did not affect the result.
- Zamalek filed a complaint against the Slovenian referee of its summit match against Al Ahly.
- The FA said the match included no controversial refereeing decisions that affected the result, rejecting the club's request.
- Zamalek's media chief Maher Gharib said the club set a 48-hour deadline for the FA's response and may seek a Slovenian translator through the clubs association.
- Zamalek received the official rejection letter and is studying its legal options, vowing not to give up the club's rights.
- An FA source said listening to VAR audio is unavailable because clubs are barred from VAR room discussions following last season's incidents.
- Al Ahly had previously been allowed to listen to VAR audio, an FA source noted.
