Al Ahly beat Talae El-Geish 2-0 | Egyptian League | Match Highlights
Al Ahly strolled to a 2-0 victory over El-Geish to overtake Ismaily on top of the Egyptian Premier League table on Tuesday.
The Red Devils made five changes to the starting line-up that featured in the 1-0 Egyptian Super Cup win over Masry on Friday but the team worked in typically perfect harmony to ease past El-Geish for a fourth straight win.
Out-of-favour winger Mido Gaber, who made a rare start, headed home the opener seven minutes before the break and central midfielder Amr El-Sulaya ensured the win with a simple late finish.
Ahly’s Egyptian international striker Marwan Mohsen, who has been absent since the African Cup of Nations in early 2017, made his long-awaited return from a serious knee injury after coming on as a substitute in the latter stages. He had a header saved off the line by the keeper.
Egypt’s most successful outfit, who are eyeing a third straight league title and their 40th overall, moved top with 42 points, one ahead of second-placed Ismaily who played a game more. El-Geish are eighth on 25 points.
