According to their official page, the club's management committee instructed the football administrator to dismiss Garzitto from his position, after Al-Ittihad's 2-0 loss to Al-Ahli Benghazi at Benina Stadium on Monday in the round-of-four matches of the Libya Football League., diminishing his hopes of winning the league title.
This result left Al-Ittihad with only five points dragging him back into the second place.
