Ghaly continued to shine in the Arab Games
and scored a great goal in the final match versus Saudi
Arabia. The game ended in a 2-1 win for Egypt as Moteb
added a second goal before half time while the Saudi
team clawed a goal back in the 2nd half from a penalty
kick.
The Tottenham midfielder scored from a
great long range effort as he sent an unstoppable shot
with his right into the top corner.

a numerical advantage in the 2nd half after the sending
off or Reda Takar who elbowed Abo Treka in the first
half.
Ghaly's form in the tournament was a surprise
to many. The Egyptian midfielder looked in a very good
shape despite his lack of first team football and lack
of club training.
Ghaly is linked with a move outside Tottenham
in January with a number of Premiership showing increasing
interest in the talented midfielder. However, nothing
is certain as of yet.
Apart from Ghaly's news, Tottenham drew away with West Ham
in an exciting encounter. The home side took the lead through
Cole in the 20th minute but Michael Dawson equalized for the
guests in the 67th minute.
Spurs almost won the game at the death as the
referee awarded them a penalty kick in the stoppage time but
Defoe wasted the big chance and the game ended in a draw.
