The competitions of the pre-final stages of the President’s Cup came out well, and gave a beautiful impression of the reality of football competition, which is supposed to be in our various competitions and tournaments, in line with the capabilities and data available and between the levels and performance expected from them. Which presented a different panel from the humble one that always tops the scene of our league, and the accompanying grumbling and resentment over the results and weak levels that do not rise to the amount of attention and support that the system enjoys.

Excitement and spirit were present and overshadowed the atmosphere of competition in those confrontations that brought back something of the hidden luster to our championships that suffer from slack and stagnant performance, which stripped them of the aesthetic and spherical splendor, as well as creating a state of quarrel and desertion between the fans and the stands, where their presence and the intensity of their presence became rare. And unfamiliar despite the facilities and tempting invitations offered by the clubs and the League as a factor of attraction for them, with the aim of supporting and encouraging the teams and adding enthusiasm and fun to our stadiums.

Perhaps the current tournament system, which abolished the idea of ​​a neutral stadium applied in previous versions, contributed to a certain extent in raising the pace of competition between teams and imposing the principle of equal opportunities between them, as it also succeeded in facilitating the movement of the masses and their movement, after they were suffering from the hardship of movement and difficult to go behind their teams, Especially when the interviews take place in cities that are hours away from their areas of residence.

Undoubtedly, the match success triangle is based on the audience’s side, which is a cornerstone for the success and presentation of the competitions in an impressive and decent manner, as it creates an exciting and exciting atmosphere on the stadiums, and is also considered one of the performance catalysts and the vitamin that nourishes the activity and movement of the players in the rectangle, as without it their activity withers and subsides. Forthm no matter how stardom and fame.

Hence, the remarkable public interaction witnessed by the tournament, makes it imperative for those concerned to think of a mechanism or method in which the league stands are revived and revived again, after they became empty for a long time.

We may agree that it is not easy to attract large numbers to all meetings, but we can see this in the derbies and the classics that have privacy and importance, by working in a way that gives them momentum and distinguishes them from the others. Attendance in some matches is limited to no more than 500 fans.

• Excitement and spirit were present and overshadowed the atmosphere of competition in the cup matches, which brought back some of the hidden luster of our championships.
