7.4/10Al Ittihad Outclass Ismaily SC with Commanding 3-0 Victory in Alexandria
Al Ittihad delivered a statement performance at the Borg El Arab Stadium, dispatching Ismaily SC 3-0 in a match that showcased both attacking flair and defensive solidity. The hosts struck on the stroke of halftime to seize momentum, before adding two more goals in the second half to seal a comprehensive win. Ismaily SC, despite enjoying a slight edge in possession (53%), struggled to convert their control into meaningful chances, managing just three shots on target from twelve attempts. The match was punctuated by disciplined defending and clinical finishing from Al Ittihad, who capitalized on key moments while keeping their visitors at bay. Ismaily’s frustration was evident in their four yellow cards, as they failed to find a foothold after falling behind. Al Ittihad’s 4-3-3 formation provided balance and width, while Ismaily’s 4-2-3-1 setup could not break down the home side’s organized lines.

Al Ittihad
Al Ittihad were ruthless in front of goal, converting seven shots on target from fourteen attempts into three goals. Their midfield trio, anchored by Afsha, controlled transitions and provided the creative spark, while the forward line proved clinical. Defensively, they absorbed Ismaily’s pressure effectively, conceding few clear chances and maintaining discipline despite picking up three yellow cards. The hosts’ ability to strike at crucial moments—just before halftime and then twice in the second half—demonstrated a tactical maturity and killer instinct. Their 4-3-3 system allowed them to exploit the flanks and stretch Ismaily’s backline, while remaining compact when out of possession.
Key Players
Strengths
Weaknesses
Ismaily SC
Ismaily SC started brightly, enjoying 53% possession and earning six corners, but their attacking efforts fizzled in the final third. Despite their territorial advantage, they managed only three shots on target, rarely troubling the Al Ittihad goalkeeper. The midfield, led by M. Hassan and E. Traore, struggled to break through Al Ittihad’s disciplined lines. Defensively, Ismaily were undone by lapses at key moments, conceding goals at psychologically damaging times. Their frustration boiled over into four yellow cards, and the absence of a cutting edge up front left them chasing the game for long spells.
Key Players
Strengths
Weaknesses
Tactical Analysis
Al Ittihad set up in a 4-3-3 formation, with their midfield trio providing both defensive cover and creative impetus. This structure allowed them to transition quickly from defense to attack, using the wide forwards to stretch Ismaily’s backline. Their pressing was measured, focusing on key moments to win the ball and break forward. Ismaily SC’s 4-2-3-1 aimed to control the midfield and dominate possession, but they lacked vertical penetration and struggled to create clear chances. Their reliance on set pieces (six corners) did not yield results, and their attacking midfielders were often isolated by Al Ittihad’s compact shape. Substitutions attempted to inject energy, but failed to alter the tactical balance.
Turning Point
Mabululu’s goal on the stroke of halftime gave Al Ittihad the lead and psychological edge, forcing Ismaily SC to chase the game in the second half.
