Speaking to reporters after the match, Hassan said: ‘May God grant them [the Palestinians] victory, may God have mercy on their martyrs. I’m saying to them: I'm dedicating this victory to the Egyptian people and Palestinian people, those kind and honourable people.’

    Hassan carried both the Egyptian and Palestinian flags onto the pitch following the victory, which was the country's first win in its first-ever World Cup knockout game.

      Free Palestine of course but it is funny the same team requested a ban on Pride Flags at its matches.
