Egyptian football giants Zamalek SC have officially secured their 15th Egyptian Premier League title after defeating Ceramica Cleopatra 1-0 in a tense final-day showdown.
The historic victory ended a dramatic title race involving rivals Al Ahly and Pyramids FC, with fans across Cairo celebrating deep into the night after Zamalek reclaimed the league crown.
Palestinian striker Oday Dabbagh scored the decisive goal just eight minutes into the match, giving Zamalek the advantage they needed to seal the championship. Despite heavy pressure during the remainder of the game, the White Knights managed to hold on and secure one of the club’s most emotional league triumphs in recent years.
The title win comes only days after Zamalek suffered heartbreak in the CAF Confederation Cup final, where they lost to USM Alger in a dramatic penalty shootout. The league victory now gives supporters a major reason to celebrate and restores pride after the continental disappointment.
Zamalek’s latest triumph marks their first Egyptian Premier League title since the 2021–22 season and extends their legacy as one of Africa’s biggest football clubs. According to league records, the club now holds 15 league championships, second only to rivals Al Ahly.
Fans flooded social media after the final whistle, with “Cairo is White” quickly becoming one of the biggest football trends online as supporters celebrated across Egypt.
