Barakat said in statements to On Sport channel: "Regarding the red card, I will not comment on it, and generally, I do not wish to discuss what happened during the match."
He added: "We started the match well and were able to maintain our lead against Al-Ahly. We faced a very strong opponent, but overall, I am satisfied with the players' performance."
He continued: "We couldn't maintain the lead because this is a difficult challenge against a strong opponent. We were unable to dominate possession in the second half; we tried but failed."
He went on: "We have young players such as Ali Ehab, born in 2006, and Razaq, the substitute player, who was born in 2007."
He concluded: "Mohamed Essam played on the left wing, and this is his first match in the Premier League. He was born in 2005, so experience is lacking."
