Mohamed Sherif led his Al-Ahly team to restore the tone of victories in the Egyptian League, after causing a goal and scoring another, during its 2-1 victory over its guest Ghazl El-Mahalla on Wednesday in the twenty-second stage of the competition.
Al-Ahly advanced with a goal signed by Mohamed Magdy in the 12th minute from a penalty kick caused by Mohamed Sharif, but the Tanzanian Hamid Mau scored the equalizer for Ghazl El-Mahalla in the 58th minute.
Sharif saved Al-Ahly from falling into the trap of a tie, after scoring the winning goal for the owners of the land in the second minute of the lost time for the second half, to continue scoring for the second match in a row, after scoring a goal during the summit meeting against Zamalek last Sunday.
Al-Ahly’s balance, which tied in the last stage 2-2 with Zamalek, rose to 44 points in third place, 4 points behind its traditional rivals, the leader, Zamalek, but the red team still has 3 games postponed.
On the other hand, the balance of Ghazl El-Mahalla, which received its seventh loss in the competition this season and the second in a row, stopped at 25 points in the twelfth place.
