Egyptian striker Ahmed Hassan ‘Koka’ scored his second goal this season as his club, Rio Ave, was held to a 1-1 draw against Nacional de Madeira in the Portuguese league on Sunday.
Koka played the full 90 minutes against two fellow countrymen: defender Ali Ghazal and midfielder Saleh Gomaa, who also started the game for Nacional.
The 20-year-old, Koka, put Ave in the lead after scoring the opener in the 57th minute, but Brazilian striker Diego Barcellos managed to score the equalizer 22 minutes later.
Koka, who was part of Egypt’s squad for the U-20 World Cup earlier last year, scored seven league goals for Rio Ave last season.
He scored in his senior team debut in the Pharaohs’ 3-0 victory over Uganda in a friendly match last August.
