The statement of the Egyptian Al-Ahly player, Taher Mohamed Taher, sparked a fit of laughter on social media after he said that he was watching the 2006 FIFA Club World Cup via his own phone, due to the difficulty of watching the match at that time due to his commitment to study, as he put it.

Taher said in statements to Al-Ahly TV in response to a question about whether he was following Al-Ahly in the World Cup clubs before becoming a player in its ranks: “I used to watch Al-Ahly matches in Japan as a young child on mobile phone because the matches were played early while I went to school.”

The fans were in a frenzy of laughing and mocking the player's statement because at that time in 2006 they were not smartphones.

For his part, journalist Ahmed Hossam Mido published through his personal account on the social networking site "Twitter" a picture of the Nokia 3310 phone, and commented: "Taher Muhammad Taher when he was watching Al-Ahly on the mobile phone in the school in 2006."

The fans exchanged laughing comments, so the fan Muhammad Sayed said: “He would have had a net from underground!” Another Al-Ahly supporter called “My Team in the World Cup” in defense of Taher: “I mean, from the days of this mobile phone and Al-Ahly is playing in the World Cup. !

The Club World Cup matches are currently being held in Doha with the participation of Al-Ahly of Egypt as the champion of the African Champions League, which was crowned at the expense of Zamalek 2-1.
