Al-Ain's Egyptian winger Hussein El-Shahat helped his side win the Emirati Cup after defeating Al-Wasl 2-1 in the final in Abu Dhabi on Thursday, thus clinching the domestic double this season (League and Cup).
The 25-year-old started the game, before being replaced with 20 minutes remaining.
El-Shahat has been a revelation at Al-Ain since joining in a six-month loan deal in January, producing many fine displays with the team.
Last month, Emirati side Al-Ain signed El-Shahat until 2021, making his loan move from Egyptian side Maqassa permanent.
His form earned him a first call-up to Egypt's squad for Portugal and Greece friendlies, and he played as a second-half substitute in Egypt's 1-0 loss to Greece in March.
