Ahmed Hegazy took part for the first time with his new team, Ittihad Jeddah, to lead them to victory in the derby at the expense of Al-Ahly, 2-0, in the third round of the Saudi League.
Al Ittihad won the League Derby for the first time since October 2012.
The Jeddah Federation kept a clean sheet for the first time this season with the participation of Hijazi, and also came out for the first time in the Derby since February 2018.
Hegazy performed well and deserved praise as he led Al-Ittihad Jeddah to their first win this season.
“Where are you from, when and where are you from? Al-Ittihad fans dance for joy twice as they win the derby and the biggest dance of the big thing. Hijazi builds a wall and performs great in the first match and prevents all opportunities for Al-Ahly. ”
This is what the match commentator has said about Hijazi’s performance in the derby after appearing in all the defensive interventions against the Al-Ahly Jeddah attackers.
The danger of Al-Ahly Jeddah did not appear in the first half, during which Al-Ittihad scored two goals.
Romarinho scored the first goal in the eighth minute and Gary Rodríguez added the second goal in the 18th minute.
Hijazi came close to scoring his first Saudi League goal after he found a free kick in the 33rd minute, but his header went over the crossbar.
In the second half, Al-Ittihad withdrew and the people of Jeddah launched their attacks, but Hegazy was vigilant.
Hegazy excelled in banishing more than a dangerous ball from Al-Ahly’s attack, especially from Alexandro Martita.
Not only did Omar Al-Somah stand out in a shot as he rose to a cross to precede the Egyptian international defender, but his header went past the left post.
Hegazy sent a dangerous ball in the 75th minute after a free kick, but the referee almost spoiled the Egyptian defender’s first appearance and awarded a penalty kick to Al-Ahly.
But the referee canceled the decision after he returned to video technology, so Hegazy continued to shine and keep Al Ittihad’s nets clean.
With the victory, the Jeddah Federation raised its score to 5 points, while Al-Ahly’s balance stopped at 6 points.
