Al Ahly won their 15th Egyptian Super Cup title on Thursday, beating rivals Zamalek 7-6 on penalties following a goalless draw in normal time in Abu Dhabi
Captain and goalkeeper Mohamed El Shenawy was Ahly's hero, saving two penalties and ending the victory in a shootout
The Red Devils avenged their defeat to Zamalek in the African Super Cup just four weeks earlier, when they were beaten on penalties by their neighbors in Cairo
However, the match was played under a cloud of controversy, with three Zamalek players being detained in Abu Dhabi a few days before the game
That is the fourth consecutive time Al Ahly have won the title
