For his part, sports commentator Bilal Allam said, on his Twitter account: “A lot of his players have this happen to them, but of course the concept of regret and sarcasm is why, because I am a professional and a good and beautiful person, and may God reward him with the solidarity of the players with him.” In the last seconds of the match, without any complaint from him.
Away from their racism and their disgusting and absurd
cynicism, a lot of this happens to them.. But of course, why is the concept of pity and sarcasm because I am
a professional and a good and beautiful person , and
may God reward him with the solidarity of the players with him
And God willing, we will bless him soon in the league ♥️ https://t.co/EQWk62PEak

Allam commented, "It takes a very professional footballer to be substituted so late in the game without complaining. More players like him are needed in the game."
Elneny's playing seconds with Arsenal cannot be considered an insult or belittlement.
The real insult if he refuses to play, what he did is complete professionalism.
Yes, we hope to see him in a better position and play more.. But his acceptance of being a servant for the benefit of his team, whatever the circumstances, is something that deserves support.
