Al Ahly Shaken As Rulani Mokwena Breaks Records With 15th Straight Win

South African coach Rulani Mokwena has continued his impressive start at Egyptian club Pyramids FC after guiding the team to a 2-0 victory over El Dakhlya in the Egyptian Cup, extending its winning streak to 15 consecutive matches in all competitions.

The Egyptian side secured the victory at the 30 June Stadium on Saturday evening, November 7, 2026, to advance to the last 16 of the competition.

Pyramids made an early statement when attacker Youssef Obama opened the scoring in the eighth minute. His goal gave the defending champions an early advantage and allowed them to approach the remainder of the contest with greater control.

El Dakhlya attempted to respond, but Pyramids maintained their organisation and limited their opponents’ opportunities. The home side continued to press for another goal and eventually doubled its lead in the 75th minute through Mostafa Fathy.

Fathy’s strike gave Pyramids a comfortable cushion as they managed the closing stages to secure qualification for the next round.

The result adds to Mokwena’s growing list of achievements since taking charge of the Egyptian club. According to reports, the former Mamelodi Sundowns coach has now overseen 15 successive victories across all competitions, highlighting the team’s consistency during his tenure.

His performances have also earned individual recognition, with Mokwena reportedly named Egyptian Coach of the Month for September and October.

Pyramids have also made a strong start to their League Cup campaign, collecting six points from their opening two matches to move to the top of Group B.

The club’s attention will now turn to its upcoming league meeting with Egyptian heavyweights Al Ahly, scheduled for November 23. Pyramids reportedly hold a four-point advantage over their rivals and will be seeking another positive result to strengthen their position.

Mokwena’s progress in Egypt continues to attract interest from South African football supporters, who will be watching closely to see whether he can maintain the team’s winning form as the season develops.
