Former Pharaohs midfielder Mohamed Shawqi named ZED FC coach - Egyptian Football
Egyptian Premier League side ZED FC announced on Monday the appointment of former Pharaohs and Ahly midfielder Mohamed Shawqi as their new head coach. This will be Shawqi's first role as a head coach. The solid defensive midfielder, who retired in 2015, previously served as assistant coach under the Pharaohs' Portuguese coach Carlos Queiroz and retained his position with successor Ihab Galal. He also acted as assistant to Ahly's interim coach Emad El-Nahass during the final phase of the season, helping the club secure the Egyptian League title. Shawqi replaces Hamada Sedki, who managed ZED FC in the second half of last season. Promoted to the top flight in the 2023/2024 season, ZED FC finished first in the relegation group with 32 points.

Egyptian club ZED FC announced on Thursday the departure of coach Magdy Abdel-Aaty following the team's disappointing conclusion to the first phase of the Egyptian Premier League, which saw them slip into the relegation group.

ZED FC will kick off their relegation group playoff against Ghazl El-Mahalla on Wednesday 12 March.

ZED FC hold Zamalek to third straight draw under Peseiro - Egyptian Football
Zamalek failed to secure their first victory under newly appointed Portuguese coach José Peseiro, settling for a 1-1 draw against ZED FC in the Egyptian Premier League on Thursday. Nasser Mansy canceled out, in the fifth minute of additional time of the first half, Mostafa Ziko's 25th-minute opener to concede a third straight draw in as many games. Since his appointment on 14 February, Peseiro has yet to secure a victory, with Zamalek drawing 1-1 against Petrojet, Ahly, and ZED FC. The result, Zamalek remain third in the table with 29 points, seven behind joint leaders Ahly and Pyramids FC. ZED FC sit 10th with 20 points from 16 matches. Two set-pieces Zamalek dominated possession against ZED FC who sat back on defence but were dangerous on the counter. In the 25th minute Mostafa Ziko collected a poorly cleared corner to strike the opener from inside the area. Zamalek pressed forward but struggled to capitalize on their chances. Mostafa Shalaby, Omar Gaber, and Zizo all missed key opportunities, with the latter striking the crossbar in the 35th minute. Just before halftime, Nasser Mansy headed in a precise corner from Ahmed "Zizo" El Sayed. Peseiro introduced Seifeddine Jaziri, Nasser Maher and young Tunisian winger Ahmed Jefali to bolster the attack, but ZED FC goalkeeper Ali Lotfi denied Zizo's powerful effort late in the match. Zamalek were reduced to 10 men in stoppage time after Mohamed Shehata received a second yellow card. Zamalek will next face Enppi in their 17th league match on Tuesday.
