Yedan stars for Ahly in full debut
Burkinabe striker Yedan scores a goal and sets up another in Ahly full debut
Published in Ahram Online on 13 - 03 - 2014

Ahly came back from behind to down a 10-man El-Entag El-Harby 3-1, with summer-signing Moussa Yedan scoring a goal and setting up another in the Egyptian Premier League on Thursday.
Up-and-coming striker Amr Gamal cancelled out Entag forward Bassem Morsy's surprise sixth minute opener four minutes from the half-hour mark before Burkina Faso's Yedan marked his full debut with a magnificent volley to put his side in front.
Yedan then turned from scorer to provider 12 minutes from time, teeing up substitute El-Sayed Hamdy for Ahly's third of the night.
Entag, who were second from bottom ahead of the game, had to play for more than the second half with a man down when striker Morsy was dismissed in the 40th minute for a second bookable offence.
Despite the win, the African champions still remain fourth of Group A with 19 points, six points adrift of surprise package leaders Smouha.
Impressive Yedan
Visitors Entag needed just six minutes to stun their hosts when Morsy scored from close range following a goal-mouth scramble as Ahly failed to clear a corner kick.
Ahly then had a couple of chances to level the scoring through Yedan and Gamal but it wasn't until the 26th minute when the 22-year-old Gamal equalised for his side.
Gamal emphatically glanced home an Ahmed Fathy free-kick for his fourth league goal this season.
Entag, however, made Ahly's mission easier when Morsy, already on a yellow card, was adjudged by the referee to be simulating inside the area for his second booking of the night.
Six minutes into the second half, Yedan gave Ahly the lead when he exchanged passes with Gamal before hitting an exquisite volley from a relatively tight angle.
As the match seemed to be heading for a narrow 2-1 win for Ahly, Yedan refused to leave the game without contributing to another goal when he crossed for substitute Hamdy who simply slotted home from point-blank range.
