Pyramids halt Masry perfect start in Egyptian Premier League - Egyptian Football
Newly signed Brazilian winger Ewerton scored a brilliant solo goal to help Pyramids FC earn a 2-2 draw against El Masry on Tuesday, ending the Port Said side's perfect start to the Egyptian Premier League season. Ewerton broke the deadlock in the 37th minute with a powerful strike after a solo run down the left flank. Masry responded shortly after the break, with Abderrahim Deghmoum slotting home from close range in the 49th minute following a scramble in the box. Fiston Mayele restored Pyramids' lead in the 66th minute with a clinical finish, but Omar El Saaiy equalized for Masry seven minutes from time to secure a point for the league leaders. Masry remain top of the standings with seven points from three matches, while Pyramids sit second on five points. The Port Said club had kicked off the campaign with back-to-back wins, collecting six points from their first two matches before Tuesday's draw. On the other side, Pyramids opened their season with a goalless draw against Wadi Degla, followed by a 1-0 victory over Ismaily.

Pyramids FC sign Brazilian winger Ewerton on four-year deal - Egyptian Football
Egyptian side Pyramids FC have signed Brazilian winger Ewerton Paixão da Silva from Czech club Baník Ostrava on a four-year contract; the club announced on Monday. The 28-year-old becomes the club's first signing of the summer as the African champions prepare for the new season, which kicks off on 9 August against newly promoted side Wadi Degla. Known simply as Ewerton, the winger is expected to fill the void left by Ibrahim Adel, who joined UAE side Al-Jazira earlier this month. Ewerton was previously linked with a move to Egyptian giants Ahly, who showed interest in January, but the deal fell through amid reports that Ostrava had set a $2.5 million price tag for the player. He scored 16 goals and provided seven assists in 34 appearances in all fronts last season. Pyramids FC are coming off a historic campaign in which they won their first CAF Champions League title and finished runners-up in both the Egyptian Premier League and Egypt Cup. The club face a packed schedule this season, including domestic and continental competitions, as well as representing Africa at the FIFA Intercontinental Cup. They are set to face New Zealand's Auckland City on 14 December at Air Defense Stadium.
