Zamalek SC managed to secure their 13th league title after beating Entag El-Harby 2-0 this evening.

It took Zamalek only six minutes to open the scoring through Ahmed Sayed Zizo, while Shikabala played a through ball to Achraf Bencharki inside the penalty area, the latter then played the ball back to Zizo who placed it in the back of the net.

The Whites have collected 79 points after 33 games making it mathematically impossible for defending champions Ahly to catch them with 73 points. The Red Devils were held to a 3-3 draw at Gouna.

This marks Zamalek’s 13th league title and their first one since the 2014/2015 season.

Only six players from that squad are still among the Whites’ ranks. They are: Mahmoud Gennesh, Mohamed Abogabal, Mohamed Abdelshafy, Tarek Hamed, Ayman Hefny and Youssef Obama.

Zamalek will next face the National Bank of Egypt who will give the champions a guard of honor on Friday, in the last round of the league.
