Egyptian left back Ahmed Abo Mosallam finally started for Strasbourg. The Egyptian didn't see action in the first two league games but managed to make his season debut against Auxerre which ended in a 3-0 win for the homeside.

Abo Mosallam made a great saving tackle in the match which prevented a real goal. The Strasbourg goalkeeper came out of his net and couldn't collect the ball which fell to an Auxerre player who tried to bury it into the empty net. However, Abo Mosallam quickly dived in and through his body into the direction of the ball to prevent a real goal.

Abo Mosallam's side scored three times in the game. Their first and second goals came through . Cuesta who scored in the24th and 67th minutes respectively while the 3rd came in the last minute through Gameiro.


Despite the great tackle from the Egyptian, he showed an average performance but hopefully he will appear in better form in the coming matches.

It should be noted that Strasbourg are currently 7th in the tabke after this win and they will play away this weekend versus Toulouse.
