Mohamed Zidan is pleased with life in Dortmund
Per Bild, Mohamed Zidan is not only pleased with life in Dortmund but expressed his dissatisfaction of his time in Hamburg. With particular reference to Hamburg's former coach Hubb Stevens, now of PSV he noted how he, "was a total outsider." However all that has changed and the talented Egyptian international enjoys a great relationship with Jürgen Klopp and all his teammates. Great news for die Schwarzgelben as they head into the second half of the season.

"I look forward to every day with BVB"
In a interview of Mohamed Zidan by Josef Schneck of Borussia Online, the Egyptian international spoke of how pleased he is with BVB.
Josef Schneck: Mohamed, when you came from Hamburg, you spoke of having fulfilled a dream at BVB. How do you see things after three months?
Mohamed Zidan: Things have been very, very positive. Overall I am happy at Borussia Dortmund and I will give my all to remain so. My teammates received me superbly. Everyone helped me to settle in quickly. We have a nice team which makes it fun to play football.
Josef Schneck: You´ve scored three goals for BVB, more than your entire stay at HSV.
Mohamed Zidan: I have not thought of Hamburg in a long time. BVB only counts for me and my goal is always to help me team and be successful together.
Josef Schneck: The BVB fans have also taken you into their hearts during this time.
Mohamed Zidan: This does me good and helps me to play successful football. After the fans whistled me off in the match against Schalke, all my teammates stood behind me and supported me. Now our fans can also see that I give my all for Borussia Dortmund in every match.
Josef Schneck: You have signed a four-year contract with BVB valid through 30 June 2012.
Mohamed Zidan: This makes me happy because I look forward to every day with BVB.
Josef Schneck: Have you gotten yourself settled in Dortmund outside of the stadium and training center?
Mohamed Zidan: Yes, I have found a house and moved in this weekend. In this area, I am also on the right track.
Josef Schneck: Is it true that automobiles are an interest of yours outside of football?
Mohamed Zidan (laughing): That is correct. Beautiful automobiles are a hobby of mine, but only in my private life. On the field, I only have BVB in my head.

a beautiful victory by BVB
With an extremely clinical display of balanced Football and good defending die Schwarzgelben defeated Karlsruher SC 1-0. As expected KSC put up a great fight and narrowly missed defeating Jürgen Klopp's side but Mohamed Zidan's goal twenty minutes into the match proved to be the deciding strike. The victory puts BVB in fourth place of the Bundesliga table, awaiting todays results.
The match was definitely not free of controversy as KSC had a Edmond Kapllani goal called back with a late offside call and a further goal oddly called back that looked to be cleared-out from behind the line. However BVB took the lead twenty minutes after the start when Hungarian international Tamás Hajnal swung in a pin-point cross in-close that Mohamed Zidan flicked past KSC 'keeper Markus Miller who otherwise played a perfect match. Following the break, with the loyal support of the Wildparkstadion behind then, KSC was clearly the aggressor but they couldn't breakthrough a great back line performance, most notably by Mats Hummels and Neven Subotić. Jakub Blaszczykowski's pace was a tactical weapon as always and as KSC through forward, his runs threatened to extend the lead and kept the home side honest. However in the end Roman Weidenfeller's work between the pipes in keeping his second consecutive clean sheet gave BVB the victory and three points.
