The combative defender, who joined Ahli from bitter rivals Ismaili in the close season, was included in the starting line-up to make his debut.

He is likely to start the Egyptian champions' upcoming league game against Police Union next week.

Mohamed Abdul-Wahab scored twice as Military overcame Ahli, who opened the defense of their league title by claiming an easy 2-0 victory over Ghazl Mahalla.

Military caused the greatest upset of the first round after defeating Masri 2-0.
