Bencharki scored a late goal to hold 1-1 draw for Zamalek against Pyramids in the Egyptian Premier League on Sunday.

Abdalah El Saeed had opened the scoring for the Pyramids after making a nice move from the right-back into six yards, where he slotted the ball into the net.

Ashraf Bencharki levelled the scoring for the White Knight from a penalty spot in the injury time, as he stepped up to send the goalkeeper the wrong way.

Zamalek came close to opening the scoring after only two minute through a nice free kick implemented by Ferjani Sassi, whose powerful shot went near the left post.

Mahmoud Alaa hit the bar in the 83rd minute, and the ball went to Bencharki, who finds the net empty, but he put the ball above the crossbar.

Ahmed Sayed Zizo wasted a massive chance to level the scoring in the 75th minute when he was on a position in the front of the empty net, but his ball went above the post.
