Police Union have justified their title credentials with a vital 1-0 victory over Harras Hodoud on Thursday. The only goal of the game came after four minutes with a header from striker Salah Ashour. Police move to third place temporarily after claiming their 36th point to become four points adrift of leaders Zamalek, who lost 2-1 at Gouna this week. Fourth-placed Ahli have a chance to move second and close the gap with Zamalek to a single point if they beat bottom club Ittihad later on Thursday.
