After
an exciting match, Egypt won the LG cup after a 4-2
win over Senegal. Senegal took the lead early on but
the Pharaohs managed to equalize and score the 2nd goal
before half time. In the 2nd half, Senegal leveled the
score but two late goals from the Egyptian side ended
the game to Egypt's favor.
The Egyptian team won the LG cup after
a 4-2 win over Senegal. The Pharaohs performed very
well in the first half which ended in a 2-1 score for
the Egyptian side. However, the 2nd half was a different
story as some players ran out of gas and Senegal managed
to level the score which added to the confusion in the
Egyptian side. Despite this, two late goals gave Egyptian
the title of the friendly tournament.
The Pharaohs received an early shock as
Senegal scored through a perfectly executed overhead
kick just after 2 minutes from the kick off.
The Egyptian side took control of the
game completely after the goal and created many chances
especially through the diligent Mohamed Abdel Wahab
from the left wing.
Abdel Wahab was the best player in this
half as his moves and crosses from the left win put
the Senegalese side under continuous pressure. The players
moved well off the ball and used quick first time passing
well which gave them superiority in attack.
The first Egyptian goal came through Abdel
Wahab who made an excellent run from the left wing and
entered the box from left before laying the ball superbly
on the floor to the oncoming Hassan Mostafa who fired
a direct low shot into the back of the net to make the
score 1-1.

The Egyptian team added another goal after another fine assist
from Abdel Wahab who whipped a cross from the left wing to
find Emad Moteb who headed it home from close range to give
Egypt a 2-1 lead.
In the second half, the Senegalese side didn't
allow Abdel Wahab to advance from the left wing as he used
to do in the first half and so, the Egyptian team couldn't
create many chances. Add to this the equalizer that Senegal
scored from a powerful shot which added to the confusion in
the Egyptian side.
The Egyptian team made some tactical changes
which helped the Pharaohs to get back into the game as the
sub Amr Zaki was the one who reclaimed Egypt's lead from a
superbly headed goal. Zaki also forced an own goal in the
final minutes of the game to end the match in a 4-2 score.
