The Zamalek player received the ball in his own half, ran a short distance, and realized that goalkeeper Mohamed Bassam was ahead of his goal. He fired the ball from the halfway line towards the goal, which found its way into the net, making it the undisputed goal of the day.
Zamalek defeated Ceramica 2-0 to move to the top of the Egyptian Premier League on its opening day. This round of matches will continue on Saturday and Sunday, with all eyes on Cairo International Stadium, where Al Ahly will face Modern Sport.
