Ernest Papa Arko, trying to round up his marker, scored the opener for Geish
By Akyereko Frimpong-Manson
Ghanaian striker Ernest Papa Arko converted a 32nd minute penalty to help 10-man El Geish draw 1-1 with El Dakhleya in the Egyptian Premier League on Wednesday night.
The former Liberty Professionals striker stepped up to slot home a penalty and send Farouk Gaafar’s men ahead.
The Cairo Military Academy Stadium had jeered to life and was enjoying a fine artistic football until El Geish were reduced to ten men on the stroke of half time.
The visitors returned from recess to also pull even from the spot through striker Mohamed Yehia.
Arko has netted thrice this season for Geish in nine games.
