After a scoreless first half, the Panthers took the lead with 17 minutes left of the second stanza through Jim Allevinah's finish just two minutes before the visitors had Omar Gaber sent off.

However, the Egyptians managed to secure a share of the spoils thanks to Mostafa Mohamed's 90th minute strike.
