“Triple substitution at halftime signals Al Ittihad's tactical shift”
“John Ebuka rescues point for Al Ittihad with last-gasp equalizer”
Pivotal
Al Ittihad
Pharco
Al Ittihad snatched a dramatic late equalizer through John Ebuka in the dying moments to rescue a point against a resilient Pharco side. The visitors had taken the lead early through Karim El Tayeb in the 5th minute and looked set to claim a valuable away victory until Ebuka's 90th-minute intervention. Both managers made significant changes at halftime and throughout the second half, with the match becoming increasingly fractious as yellow cards flew in the final stages. This result maintains Al Ittihad's mid-table position while Pharco will rue their inability to see out what would have been a crucial three points in their campaign.
How entertaining was this match?
