Match officials
A total of 12 refereeing trios (a referee and two assistant referees) and 16 video assistant referees were appointed for the tournament.
Amir Sayoud – Algeria
Although the attacking midfielder was not a regular starter for the Desert Foxes, cometh the hour, cometh the man. Sayoud it was who broke the deadlock in the final, when he came off the bench to score with a wonderful strike from outside the box. The goal will no doubt live long in the memory of Algerian fans, as well as the Al-Tai player.
Hannibal Mejbri – Tunisia
He may only be 18 years old, but Mejbri was one of keys to Tunisia’s second-place finish. He played in every match and lit up the midfield with his boundless energy.
Mohammed Nahiri – Morocco
Nahiri more than justified Hussein Ammouta's decision to call him up to the first team. The 30-year-old defender showcased his versatility during the Arab Cup, alternating between left and right-back.
Ahmed Refaat - Egypt
Prior to the Arab Cup, Ahmed Refaat had only ever earned one cap for the Pharaohs, a substitute appearance in a friendly against Uganda more than eight years ago. However, coach Carlos Queiroz clearly saw Refaat’s potential and used him as an impact sub.
Yazan Alnaimat – Jordan
Prior to the Arab Cup, Yazan Alnaimat was not a regular starter for Jordan and had just one international goal from a friendly against Bahrain last March.
Oliver Kass Kawo – Syria
Kass Kawo represented his country for the first time in a group stage match against UAE. He then managed to bag his first goal for the Qasioun Eagles in his second outing, which happened to fall on his twentieth birthday, against eventual finalists Tunisia.
