He has guided Egypt to 3 consecutive Africa Cup of Nations trophies
Hassan Shehata, 60, is the coach of the Egyptian national football team. A former player, he has inspired admiration locally and internationally for leading Egypt to win three successive titles of the African Cup of Nations in the years 2006, 2008 and 2010.
During his years as a player, Shehata, showed a lot of creativity in his game. He was a midfielder. But it is when he became Egyptian national team coach in 2004 that he has really shone.
One newspaper recently described how, after the departure of Italian coach Marco Tardelli in 2004, Egypt turned to Shehata who has “glowered successfully from behind his moustache ever since”.
