Ismaili filed a complaint to the Egyptian Football Association against the referee of the club's match against Petrojet, accusing him of being the main reason behind the 1-0 defeat. "We were obliged to take an action after such a bad performance by Medhat Al-Houfi. They have to punish him," Ismaili general director Abdul-Rahman Anous told FilGoal.com on Friday. Alaa Ibrahim's strike two minutes before the break was enough to hand the Dervishes their first defeat of the Egyptian League. "The referee didn't award us three clear penalties, which could have changed the outcome of the game," Anous added. Meanwhile, Hosni Abd-Rabou is unlikely to take part in Ismaili's Egyptian League game against Aluminum on Monday after suffering a groin injury against Petrojet. The Egyptian international, who is in the middle of a tug-of-war between Ismaili and Strasbourg, needs a three-day rest before returning to full training.
