EFA: Egypt Cup Final between Zamalek and Pyramids to be at Cairo Stadium
Amir Hagag The Football Association has finally decided to hold the Egypt Cup final between Zamalek and Pyramids at Cairo International Stadium, after reversing the idea of holding it outside Egypt. The Football Association offered Zamalek and Pyramids the option of hosting the Egypt Cup final on May 20 with Egyptian referees, based on the recommendation of Oscar Ruiz, head of the Referees Committee. The Football Association is awaiting the two clubs' response to the proposal, especially since bringing in a foreign crew would cost the requesting club $50,000. read more Japan Stun Spain 2-1 to Qualify for World Cup Last 16 World Cup 2022: Get to Know Confirmed Line-ups of Japan and Spain Group E Decider Saudi Arabia Bid Farewell to World Cup after 2-1 Loss to Mexico Tunisia Achieve Historic Win over France but Fail to Qualify Tunisia to Clash against France in World Cup Sports Get to Know Squad of Group D Teams in World Cup Sports Al Ahly Gift EGP 70,000 to Players After Claiming Egyptian Super Cup Title Sports Bencharki Hits First 2 Goals with Al Jazira Since Leaving Zamalek Sports Arsenal Possible Line-up for Nottingham Forest News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..

Oscar Ruiz appointed head of Egyptian refereeing committee - Egyptian Football
The Egyptian Football Association (EFA) announced Wednesday that Oscar Ruiz, a Colombian former international referee and lecturer, has been appointed head of its refereeing committee. The appointment, effective 1 March, was approved by the board during Wednesday's meeting, chaired by EFA President Hany Abo Rida. The decision comes after widespread criticism of refereeing in the Egyptian Premier League amid controversies over VAR and allegations of bias in key matches. The 55-year-old Colombian former FIFA referee, who has officiated in multiple World Cups and Copa America tournaments, is expected to bring a wealth of experience to Egypt's refereeing reforms. 🔴📋 | قرارات مجلس إدارة اتحاد الكرة في اجتماعه اليوم اعتمد مجلس إدارة الاتحاد المصري لكرة القدم في اجتماعه اليوم برئاسة المهندس هاني أبو ريدة رئيس الاتحاد القرارات التالية: - تعيين أوسكار رويز المحاضر الدولي في التحكيم رئيسا للجنة الحكام الرئيسية اعتباراً من أول مارس المقبل. -… — (@EFA) February 19, 2025 He previously led workshops for Egyptian referees alongside FIFA's director of refereeing, Massimo Busacca, focusing on penalty decisions and VAR protocols. His appointment is part of the EFA's recent overhaul of its refereeing system, which included the dismissal of former refereeing committee head Yasser Abdel-Raouf. The appointment follows recommendations from figures, including Busacca, and hopefully usher in a new era of improved officiating in Egyptian football. Other decisions approved during Wednesday's meeting included forming an organizing committee for Cairo's hosting of the CAF General Assembly from 9 to 14 March and submitting a bid to host the African Nations Under-20 Championships in 2027–2031.
