Al Ahly’s top keeperEl-Shennawy committed a fatal mistake in the dying minutes of his side’s game against Pyramids FC, allowing Eric Traore to score in his empty net on Thursday.

The international keeper failed to control the ball after a pass from defender Rami Rabia, allowing the Burkinabe forward to score in an empty net.

The defending champions were punished for their lack of cutting edge, especially in the second half, which saw the visitors play with 10 players after the dismissal of defensive midfielder Nabil ‘Dunga’ Emad just before the break.
