Zamalek back on top of the Egyptian League after beating Smouha 1-0

A first-half penalty from Ferjani Sassi helped Zamalek restore their two-point lead on top of the Egyptian Premier League table following a 1-0 win over struggling Smouha in Cairo on Wednesday.

The in-form Tunisian midfielder calmly tucked away the spot-kick eight minutes before the break, which proved to be the winner as Zamalek failed to add to their lead despite totally dominating the game.
