Al Masry defender Mohamed Hashem hit wasteful Kaizer Chiefs with a sucker punch, netting the winner in the 87th minute as the Egyptians beat Amakhosi 2-1 in their CAF Confederation Cup Group D opener at Suez Stadium on Sunday.
Hashem capitalised on Inacio Miguels error after the Amakhosi defender miscued the ball, trying to clear the line from a corner-kick.
Al Masry were very quick to get out of their blocks, creating the first chance of the match as early as the seventh minute when winger Abderrahim Deghmoum teed up striker Kingsley Eduwo, only for him to be denied by the visitors goalkeeper Brandon Petersen, who smartly used his trailing leg to thwart the danger.
