Ittihad Alexandria win Egyptian Premier League!
In his first full season at Ittihad Alexandria, Steve Kean has won the Egyptian Premier League. The previous winners, Al-Ahly, had won the League for 9 consecutive years, with Kean's side preventing a decade of Trophy wins for them. Kean's side are still undefeated in the competition, with 5 games still left to play. Ittihad currently have a 16 point lead at the top, meaning it isn't possible to be caught by second place, Zamalek.
Ittihad also have the Egyptian Cup Final coming up against Ismaily. If they were to continue there unbeaten streak and win this game, Kean will have done the double in his first full season, something that has never been done in the history of Egyptian football.
Kean has stated that he is ecstatic with the season that Ittihad have had and hopes that they can continue there unbeaten spree despite no longer needing the points. Kean has thanked 2 players in particular for leading the team to glory...
Glaydson
Glaydson played a more attacking role this season than he is used to, being a DM. However, he seemed to shine, there was something special. He was the teams engine, pushed the team to do there best, the motivator that made all the players want to strive or success. In 29 appearances Glaydson has gathered 1 goal, 4 assists, and an average rating of 7.24.
Misael
Misael has been the main goal scorer for Ittihad. Even with playing alongside 2 other ST's most games, Misael has out shined them all. However, this does not mean he is not a team player. Whilst so far gathering an astonishing 20 goals in the league, he has also assisted his teammates 15 times, meaning he is a great team player, and just generally a great player for the squad.
