ALEXANDRIA: Ittihad manager Taha Basri has put his players on alert after confirming that their survival battle is not over yet.
I felt the players were a little bit relaxed in training and it seems I had to remind them that we are not safe yet and that we need to win more points to remain in the top flight, the former ENPPI boss told FilGoal.com.
Ittihad stunned third-placed Gaish to go four points clear above fourteenth-placed Telecom Egypt.
With three matches left to play, the Alexandrian side climbed to 10th place with 29 points.
We have a very important match against Suez Cement on Thursday and we need to get points to secure our survival, added Basri.
Ittihad will have to do without Mahmoud Sobhi and Mahmoud Shokri who are banned from this game and injured Khamis Gaafar.
