Al Masry punish Kaizer Chiefs in the dying minutes

A late blunder by Kaizer Chiefs gifted Egyptian side Al Masry a 2-1 win in the CAF Confederation Cup group stage clash in Suez.

The result becomes Amakhosi’s first defeat in four matches in all competitions.

CAF CONFEDERATION CUP: AL MASRY 2-1 KAIZER CHIEFS

Amakhosi’s goalkeeper, Brandon Petersen, conceded a penalty in the 58th minute before Bonheur Mugisha stepped up to convert the spot kick.

Dillan Solomons found Chiefs’ equaliser in the 66th after a mazy deep run before dribbling past two Al Masry defenders to open an angle for his left shot.

Just when Amakhosi were pressing for an equaliser, the hosts, against the run of play, found a winner in the 87th minute after Inacio Miguel’s miss-kicked clearance, allowing Mohamed Hashem to tap in an unlikely winner for Al Masry.
