“All teams are strong. We cannot name a specific team that we want to face in the quarter-finals. We are ready for any game.

“Football has everything, but we must be humble in order to reach the furthest stage in the tournament. We want to show good performances in all matches.

“Certainly, I am upset for Zamalek to exit the tournament, because I am completely convinced that they have the ability to reach the knockout stages. They performed well with Carteron, but they were unlucky.

“I don’t know if Esperance and MC Alger have agreed on the result or not, but as a coach, I do not acknowledge this matter. I wish success to Zamalek, we did not want to face them in the quarter-finals,” he added.
