from Tiyani Mabunda and Khama Billiat coming either side of a Mohamed Ibrahim
strike. The defeat marked the first loss for Zamalek after 16 games, which
included a 12-match undefeated streak under current manager Mohamed Helmi.

stages of the competitions.

are currently sitting bottom of group B with zero point from two matches and
will be praying for Sundowns to also pick all maximum points in the reverse
fixtures on July 27 against Zamalek at the Lucas Moripe Stadium, knowing a draw
would seal the Brazilians’ place in the knockout stages of Africa’s premier cup
competition.
