Video: Amr Zaki takes Zamalek to Egypt Cup Final

Amr Zaki Egypt'S cup 2011

Amr Zaki scores twice to help Zamalek reach the Egypt Cup final for the first time since 2008.

Amr Zaki recalled glory days to score two brilliant goals, including a late one, as Zamalek defeated Haras El-Hodoud 2-1 on Saturday to reach the Egypt Cup final and continue their bid towards their first title since 2008. The Egyptian international, who is enjoying a new lease of life under coach Hassan Shehata following a lengthy injury-plagued spell, opened the scoring as early as the third minute.

Hodoud leveled the score through a goal from striker Ahmed Mekki seven minutes past the hour mark but Zaki sent the home fans into raptures when he netted the decisive strike five minutes from time following a brilliant individual effort.

Zamalek set up a re-match of the 2008 final as they will face ENPPI after the latter beat Arab Contractors on penalty shootout earlier in the day.
