Micho Sredojevic: Ex-Orlando Pirates coach falls short of second trophy with Zamalek

Former Orlando Pirates coach Milutin Sredojevic failed to win his second major trophy on Friday night as Zamalek lost 3-2 to Al Ahly in the Egyptian Super Cup.

Sredojevic had a great start to his career in Egypt soon after leaving the Sea Robbers, lifting the Egyptian Cup two weeks after joining them.

He was tipped to bag a second trophy in as many months, but Al Ahly put a brake on his fairy tale run in spectacular fashion.

Al Ahly scored three goals in 48 minutes - through Junior Ajayi (19th and 48th minutes) and Hussein El Shahat's first-half stoppage-time goal.
