National voter Ibrahim Hamdani bears a share of responsibility for the injury of his player Ibrahim Maza. Even if it later proved to be easy.
Playmaker Mazza was forced to leave in the 40th minute of the “Greens” friendly match against Niger in Tizi Ouzou on Tuesday evening.
Mazza appeared to be in pain from an injury to his right ankle, and was unable to continue playing. Hamdani intervened to remove him and replace him with fellow striker Mohamed Al-Bashir Belloumi.
The national voter could not have used Mazza in this match, especially since it had a friendly nature. Moreover, this coach is at the beginning of his work, and he has a valuable opportunity to try out the largest number of players in order to know their technical abilities and the extent of their eligibility to represent the national colors.
Mazza is suffering from fatigue, after playing the full phases of the matches against Zambia and Burundi on the 25th and 29th of last September. At the club level, he played 5 matches with Bayern Leverkusen in the German Championship and the Cup of this country, mainly. He only missed one match, due to illness.
This Wednesday, Ibrahim Mazza will conduct an in-depth examination under the supervision of the “Desert Warriors” doctor, to determine the exact type of injury, and the extent of its seriousness or not.
Without exaggeration, this “incident” is supposed to serve as a valuable lesson for the chief technical officer of the national team, regarding how to employ players, and when they can be released to rest.
