Here they are, the champions of the league.” That is all what you can hear inside Zamalek’s dressing room at 30 June Stadium on Tuesday night after the White Knights took a huge step towards securing the long-awaited league title. The White Knights are only five points away from their first league title since 2015 while the Red Eagles need to win all their remaining matches and wait Zamalek to struggle in two matches. “We did not win the title yet. We still have three games to play.” Zamalek’s interim president Hussein Labib said after celebrating with the players the victory over Wadi Degla. Everyone expected that the title will be decided in the last day of the league campaign on 27 August but Tuesday’s result could push the date earlier.
