Goalless draw between Fayoum and Telephonat Beni Suef in the 13th round of the Egyptian Second Division - group A

Sunday, the 26th of January 2020, 14:30 local time (12:30 UTC), Alassiouty Sports Resort, Fayoum, Egypt, the 13th round of the Egyptian Second Division.

Fayoum SC and Telephonat Beni Suef were unable to score and drew 0-0 in an important match for the lower part of the table. Both teams had their chances but none succeeded to send the ball home. The result may satisfy the visitors, which are safely outside the relegation zone at least for now.

However, the home side, Fayoum, desperately needed all the three points in order to get out of the danger area, where they are for quite a while. The change of the head coach, Karam Jaber replacing Mohamed Youssef, who had good results, proved once again to be a wrong decision. The new head coach had very little time to adapt to the team and to get to know the players, and the results are inconsistent so far, a 1-0 loss to Aluminium and especially this 0-0 at home to Telephonat. One should notice that Fayoum players have not scored in any of these two games, and the next game is away at leaders National Bank of Egypt.
