Zamalek is preparing to play a fateful and anticipated confrontation tomorrow, Wednesday, against Ceramica Cleopatra in the seventh and final round of the coronation group in the Egyptian League.
It is enough for the white team to obtain only one point to officially win the Egyptian League title this season, despite the decline in its results during the recent period and its loss of the African Confederation Cup title to Ittihad Al-Capital, which made the league title the last chance to save the season.
Stopping the danger of Brazilian Juan Bezerra is one of the most prominent challenges that Zamalek has faced recently, in light of the close supervision and excessive harshness to which the player is exposed from competitors.
Several technical solutions stand out that may help the technical staff return Bezerra to his usual level against Ceramica Cleopatra.
Putting the duo Nasser Mansi and Uday Al-Dabbagh in the front line may be one of the appropriate solutions, as this will contribute to dispersing Ceramica’s defense and creating more spaces for Bezerra’s movements, even with changing some of his offensive roles.
One of the options on the table is to exploit the marking imposed on Bezerra to open spaces for Angolan winger Chico Panza on the left front, which may give him greater opportunities to create goals or score despite the recent decline in his scoring effectiveness.
The technical staff may also give the Brazilian player greater freedom to move between the right and left fronts instead of installing him in the right wing position, which may confuse the Ceramica defense and increase the offensive effectiveness of the white team.
