Hamstring Shock: Zizo Exits Al Ahly's Clash With Bank Al Ahly
3 February 2026
What happened
Ahmed Sayed Zizo, Al Ahly's winger, exited the Bank Al Ahly clash in Round 17 of the Egyptian Premier League after suffering an injury.
In the 28th minute, Zizo suffered a hamstring issue while trying to launch an attack on Bank Al Ahly's goal.
Next steps
Hussein El Shahat came on to replace Zizo, who could not continue the match.
Zizo is set to undergo thorough medical tests to determine how long his recovery will take.
Punchline 1: If Zizo's hamstring had a PR agent, it would say "I'm just taking a short leave of absence."
Punchline 2: In football, timing is everything—except when your hamstring writes its own press release.
