It noted that Ahmed Abdel Rahim 'Isho' suffered a strain in the adductor muscle, while Ali Abdel Meguid sustained a hamstring strain, and Youssef Wael 'French' complained of a calf strain.
ZED clinched a valuable 1-0 victory over Zamalek on Sunday evening at Cairo Stadium, as part of the League Cup group-stage fixtures.
In the 29th minute, Ahmed Kabaka exploited a defensive lapse to score past goalkeeper Mahdi Suleiman.
Punchline: If injuries keep piling up, perhaps they'll sign a fitness coach as a new midfielder. Punchline 2: The only thing more fragile than their defense is my espresso after a 0-1 loss.
