Ayman Younes, Zamalek’s former star and ex-member of the club’s football committee, issued a passionate message to the White Castle players ahead of the much-anticipated Egypt Cup final against Pyramids. He urged them to feel the responsibility and give their utmost effort to make the fans happy, especially those who have stood by the team during the toughest times.

Younes said on his X (formerly Twitter) account:
“It’s very important that the fans support and cheer the Zamalek players to win the Egypt Cup. But what’s even more important is that the players themselves feel the duty to repay the loyalty of the fans and the club’s board who stand behind them, by winning the cup.”

He emphasized that fan support alone won’t be enough unless matched by the players’ commitment and determination to secure the title, considering the cup a real chance to restore confidence and start a new chapter for the team.
Pyramids finish the league strong but without the title
On the other side, Pyramids enter the match with high morale after a big 5-1 win over Ceramica Cleopatra in the final round of the Egyptian Premier League, held at the Suez Canal Authority Stadium.

Despite their strong performance and decisive victory, Pyramids couldn’t clinch the league title, finishing second with 56 points, just two points behind Al Ahly, who officially secured the championship with 58 points.

An eagerly awaited showdown to decide the season’s first trophy
The upcoming match between Zamalek and Pyramids is a golden opportunity for both teams to claim an important title. Zamalek is keen to save their season and crown it with the cup to please their fans, while Pyramids aim to win the first major trophy in their history.
