A double from red-hot striker Mohamed Sherif gave Ahly an impressive 4-1 comeback victory over Maqassa for their third straight Egyptian Premier League win on Sunday, less than a week before the anticipated African Champions League final.
Ahmed Moudi gave Maqassa a surprise lead after converting a penalty in the first half but Sherif equalised a few minutes later before adding a second with another poacher’s effort two minutes past the hour mark.
