Mohamed Al-Yamani scored twice to lead Ittihad Alexandria to a hard-fought 2-1 home win over Asyut Petroleum.
It was clear from the start of the game that Ittihad Alexandria was going for the 3 points and nothing else than a win would satisfy the team.

after only 10 minutes Itthad striker Mohamed Geddo wasted a very good chance when he was face to face with the goalkeeper but shot it into the keeper's hands.

Only 12 minutes later Itthad's Midfielder Saied Abdul Aziz crossed the ball into Asyut Petroleum´s penalty area. Mohamed Al-Yamani had no trouble to head the ball into the net for Ittihad´s second goal.



In the second half El Ittihad´s Serbian headcoach Slobodan made 3 substitutions: Waleed Abou El-Ela for Reda Ragab, Hisham Hanfe for Mohamed Al-Yamani and Ahmed Hassan for Hisham Gad.

After these changes Asyut Petroleum to over the control of the game but Omar Serri scored only the consolation goal for Asyut Petroleum in the 64th minute from a free kick. Ittihad Alexandria´s goalkeeper Yousef Taher did not look very good in this situation.
