Ngumoha, Nyoni and Nallo all immediately had their hands to their mouth in disbelief as they shared shocked looks with each other that perfectly summed up the magic of the Egyptian King."
"His trademark curling finish was his 50th career goal in the Champions League proper, making him the first African player in history to reach the half-century mark in the competition. It was a defiant response to critics, though the night ended on a bittersweet note as he was substituted shortly after with a suspected minor injury."
