• By contrast, the source has ruled out any likely meeting in the offing between the two presidents of the federations in a bid to seal reconciliation’s accord, indicating this eventuality is excluded for the moment and even for the upcoming months.

• “ I don’t think that the president Mohammed Rouaraoua will reconsider his decision and is not thinking of meeting Samer Zaher even if this one apologies because the mistake is huge and the cut is deep” , he said.
•  
• It should be noted that the President of the Algerian Football Federation Mohammed Raouraoua is not putting on his agenda a date for a meeting with His Egyptian counterpart for the upcoming months, denying thus the Egyptians allegations concerning a likely meeting between the two officials in the Qatari capital as part of Raouraoua’s visit to this country at the end of this week.
