Military Production came from behind twice to beat Harras Hodoud 3-2 in the Egyptian Premier League on Tuesday. Hodoud took the lead few seconds after the kickoff when Ahmed Salama poked home an Abdul-Salam Nagah cross. Gomaa Mashhour brought the score level on the stroke of halftime upon converting a penalty kick. Ahmed Abdul-Ghani restored the hosts' slender lead one minute from the hour mark when he headed another precise cross from Nagah into the net.
Ittihad But Production roared back to form and stubbornly managed to overturn their one-goal deficit. Hassan Mousa hit an equalizer for the visitors in the 76th minute on the rebound, before substitute Mohmen Zakaria hit the winner when he connected with Sameh Adrous' cross. The unexpected loss left Hodoud in 11th place on 16 points, while the military outfit advanced to fifth spot on 20 points. Elsewhere, a revitalized Ittihad side registered their second successive victory at Mansoura, thanks to Mohamed Ragab who scored the only goal on 44 minutes. Ittihad, who had an abysmal start to the season, lie now seventh with 19 points. Promoted Mansoura remain in penultimate place on 10 points.
