Bob Bradley: Egyptian tragedy taught me to lead by example
Swansea City manager Bob Bradley says facing tragedy during his time in charge of Egypt’s national side has taught him to lead by example.
In 2012, 74 people were killed in clashes between rival fans in a riot following an Egyptian Premier League match in the city of Port Said.
And Bradley believes dealing with the tragedy developed him as a manager.
"The most tragic thing I experienced was seeing what happened in Port Said when 74 supporters lost their lives at a football match," he told Mark Chapman on 5 live Sport.
"I was asked why I didn't just leave. The answer was always the same: when things get tough you have to lead by example, you can't just be the first man out the door."
