What fifa.com say about Aboutrika





Opening

"Mohamed Aboutrika was the hero of a magical night for Egypt's Al Ahly Sporting Club at the International Stadium in Yokohama, as the reigning African champions clinched a 2-1 win over Mexico's Club America and with it an impressive third place at the FIFA Club World Cup Japan 2006. "


"Starved of the ball, Aboutrika dropped back to link up with his midfield and the impact was almost immediate. Flavio served warning of what was about to come by warming Ochoa's hands with a couple of firm drives from distance before earning a dangerous free-kick in Aboutrika territory. The gifted midfielder did not disappoint, delightfully curling the ball home to give the Africans the lead. "


".... as that man Aboutrika showed yet again why he is on the shortlist for the African player of the year. After surging out of midfield and finding Flavio with a pinpoint pass, the mercurial playmaker latched on to the Angolan's return ball and calmly slotted the ball past Ochoa for his third goal of the tournament."


God Bless you AbouTrika , you are one of my personal heros
