Pyramids FC Falls, Al Ahly Closes Gap in Title Race

Pyramids FC`s defeat to Pharco FC allows Al Ahly to close the gap in the Egyptian Premier League title race.

Pyramids FC`s title hopes took a hit as they fell 3-2 to Pharco FC at Alexandria`s Maxx Stadium on May 4. Despite late goals from Ibrahim Adel and Marwan Hamdi, Pharco`s Ahmed Sherif, Mahmoud Emad, and Amr Nasser secured the win, leaving Pyramids with a narrow one-point lead in the standings.

Al Ahly seized the opportunity, delivering a commanding 5-0 victory over Haras El-Hodood on the same day. Goals from Taher Mohamed, Ahmed Kouka, Wesam Abou Ali, Hussein El Shahat, and Mohamed Hany showcased Al Ahly`s attacking prowess, bringing them to 46 points, just one behind Pyramids FC.

With Zamalek and Masry trailing at 39 and 35 points respectively, the title race remains fiercely competitive. Upcoming matches on May 5, including Petrojet vs. Ceramica Cleopatra and NBE Club vs. Zamalek, could further shake up the standings. Standout performances included Amr Nasser`s penalty goal and assist for Pharco, and Hussein El Shahat`s dominant midfield display for Al Ahly. Attendance figures and detailed player statistics for these matches are yet to be reported.
