Egyptian club El Ahli has fined Liberian striker Francis Doe ten
thousand United States following his dismissal against Masri, the
Cairo giants said on Thursday.
Doe received a straight card on 26 minutes after appearing to
head-butt Masri midfielder Ashour Al-Adham in Wednesday's Egyptian
Premier League clash.
Despite their numerical disadvantage, Ahli managed to take the lead
through an Ahmed Hassan goal but Masri's Ahmed Osman secured a share
of spoils with 16 minutes remaining.
Coach Hossam Al-Badri insisted any player who will get booked or sent
off will be heavily fined.
Ahli said in a statement on their official website that Francis Doe
will pay the fine from his wages but did not announce any other
action.
Coach Al-Badri said the absence of any player affects the team, and
this was clear against Masri.
Doe has been Al-Badri's preferred choice upfront since joining Ahli in
the close season after being released by American outfit DC United.
The 23-year-old scored two goals in four league appearances for the
Red Devils
