The Egyptian national team suffers before facing Tunisia
In order to know the importance of the overload, it is enough to know the decision of the Portuguese coach, Carlos Queiroz, the Egyptian national team coach, to give the players a negative rest from training today, Sunday, in an attempt to relieve the physical pressure on the players who made a great effort to beat Jordan 3-1 after two additional games.

The Egyptian press reported that the negative rest today, for fear of players being exhausted, especially after the Egyptian team doctor announced that the two stars Hamdi Fathi and Mohamed El-Shennawy were undergoing a treatment program to catch up with Tunisia, after the x-rays conducted by El-Shennawy and Fathi confirmed - late yesterday evening – that they had fatigue in posterior muscle.

It is no secret to anyone who is familiar with the sciences of football training that muscle fatigue leads to muscle injuries or makes the player perform very weak, and that is why the major teams are interested in using the latest methods of recovery to remove the effects of physical exertion as quickly as possible in a safe manner.
