Al-Ahly SC crushed Pharco FC to clinch Egyptian Premier League title in dominant fashion
Al-Ahly SC sealed the Egyptian Premier League championship with a commanding 6-0 victory over Pharco FC on Wednesday, a result that ensured they finished ahead of rivals Pyramids FC despite the latter’s emphatic win elsewhere.
The defending champions wasted no time asserting their dominance, overwhelming Pharco FC from the opening whistle. Wissam Abou Ali opened the scoring in the 10th minute, setting the tone for what would become a one-sided affair.
The Palestinian striker doubled his tally just before the half-hour mark, sending Al-Ahly into the break with a comfortable 2-0 lead.
After the restart, Al-Ahly showed no signs of slowing down. Abou Ali completed his hat-trick in the 61st minute and added a fourth goal just five minutes later, pushing the scoreline to 4-0.
Not content with simply scoring, he turned provider in the 75th minute, assisting Hussein El Shahat for the fifth goal of the night. Midfielder Emam Ashour put the final touch on the rout in stoppage time, ensuring a 6-0 finish that underlined the team’s dominance.
The result was not just a statement performance but a title-clinching one. Al-Ahly’s win meant Pyramids FC’s 5-1 thrashing of Cleopatra FC was not enough to overtake them in the standings.
With this latest triumph, Al-Ahly SC retained their league crown for a third consecutive season, reaffirming their status as the undisputed giants of Egyptian football.
The Red Devils’ display against Pharco was as comprehensive as it was ruthless. From the early breakthrough to the final whistle, they maintained total control, showcasing the attacking power and tactical discipline that have come to define their title run this season.
Pyramids FC, for their part, did everything they could in their final fixture. Their five-goal haul against Cleopatra FC was impressive, but it ultimately fell short in the title race. Elsewhere in the league, Petrojet and Bank El Ahly played out a goalless draw, while Al-Masry secured a 2-0 win over Haras El Hedoud.
Al-Ahly’s league triumph will be remembered not just for the silverware, but for the manner in which it was sealed—through a six-goal demolition that left no room for doubt. As they lift the trophy once again, the Cairo-based side continues to build on a legacy of excellence, unmatched in the modern era of Egyptian football.
