Former Zamalek club president Mortada Mansour stirred controversy among social media users after he blamed his team's 4-1 loss to Al Ahli to the imp and put a magician on the right crossbar of the opposing team's goal.

The "Networks" program 2023/7/16 followed the story of magic and Al-Ahly's victory over Zamalek, who ranked third in the Premier League standings, but instead of reviewing the defeat technically or arbitrationally, Mansour surprised the public by justifying the defeats and identified someone who accused him of magic crossbar.

Mansour accused an Egyptian named Rajab Baha from Fayoum of having recruited the goblin in this mission, which sparked great interaction among Egyptians, who in turn responded to Mortada Mansour's claims and his talk about Rajab Baha.

In a comment on this, the activist Ayman Abdo that these statements are only misleading on the administrative corruption in Zamalek Club and said: "Shame and God Saibin errors and every need in the match . Da Belhekm about the corruption in Zamalek Club, which is supposed to see the problem and solve it, we do not turn to distract people in order to cover the match scandal."

Ali Abu al-Hassan, who tweeted another opinion, wrote: "The subject is magic. And reviewed the link results of Ahli in terms of victory and timing and draws and linked to the same timing and draws Zamalek. You will remember what I tell you."

For his part, activist Ahmed called for Mansour to be punished for his statements and said: "Rural communities do not tolerate such accusations, as those accused of such acts of witchcraft or prostitution in particular live isolated and ostracized for the rest of their lives, and their descendants inherit this isolation and exclusion, so Mortada Mansour must be prosecuted and should not be retracted until he is punished and the poor man is proven innocent."

He also commented activist Adam Tariq sarcastically by saying: "I am also a magician under the order of Zamalek Club Ajlblk Cup and Azmlk on the Premier League and Vklk Champions League, working for me two works I work next gift, and play in European nations."

Activist Wajdi Ramadan also tweeted: "I ask the management of Al-Ahly club to contract with Sheikh Baha because he needs it in the Club World Cup and win against Manchester City and to win the world championship."

Hours after Mansour's accusations of the citizen welcomed Baha, the latter appeared – with a simple appearance – in a video clip, sitting between two of his colleagues who work with him in the construction work, denying all the accusations of "Chancellor Mansour him", stressing that he is a simple uneducated person and lives in a very simple house, and works hard construction to support his family, and has nothing to do with the work of magic and sorcery, which he said that working out angers God Almighty.

In a legal escalation of the story, one lawyer stated: "I have been contacted by the family of the respected man Rajab Mohammed Al-Shahat, a construction worker from this country, and all necessary measures will be taken."
