Al Ahly Smash Al Masry 3-1 in the Egyptian League | VIDEO

Al Ahly and Egypt playmaker Abdallah El-Said scored a goal and dished out two assists to lead Ahly to a crucial 3-1 home victory over highly-rated Masry in the Egyptian league on Sunday.

Striker Marwan Mohsen put his side in front early in the game before center-back Saad Samir made it two just a few minutes after the break to make Masry’s mission more difficult against the defending champions.

Masry, however, seemed at a certain point close to staging a comeback late in the game when Ahmed Salem reduced the arrears with a header in the 80th minute.

But after the Port-Said side had a penalty shout waved away by the referee, Ahly were awarded a penalty in the dying minutes – with the on-fire El-Said making no mistake from 12 yards to make it three.

Ahly, who managed to emerge unscathed through a difficult run of fixtures including victories over Maqassa, Smouha and now Masry, cemented their position on top of the table with 42 points – eight clear of their closest rivals.

Masry, coached by a manager renowned of continually upsetting Ahly in Hossam Hassan, are third with 31 points, with their six-match winning run coming to a halt.
