Ahmed Omran opened the scoring before half time as three more followed after the break by Vincent Die Foneye, Osama Ragab and Ahmed Shaaban.

Hodoud, who parted ways with ENPPI boss Al-Ashri last season after six years in charge, stunned defending champions Ahli 3-0 days ago to go top.

But the heavy defeat sent Helmi Toulan’s side back to second place as ENPPI claimed the summit with 12 points from six games.

ENPPI’s next game will be against Ahli on Sunday.
