Despite the position of Ali Maaloul and his colleague Mohamed Abdel Moneim and the arrival of the latter and his playing for the first team for Al-Ahly this year only, the Tunisian full-back managed to make all the 3 goals scored by the young defender in the Red Club shirt.
The Maaloul-Abdel-Moneim duo brought to mind the Angolan golden duo Flavio-Gilberto, who specialized in such games, which ended with goals, including winning championships and most of the set pieces.
Abdel Moneim scored a fatal goal for Al-Ahly from Sanaa Maaloul, which gave him victory over Al-Ittihad of Monastir in the match that was held yesterday, Sunday, in the first leg of the 32nd round of the African Champions League.

The duo of Maaloul and Abdel Moneim witnessed 3 goals with 3 different coaches “Pitso Mosimane, Ricardo Soares, Marcel Koller.” All goals came with the head of the Al-Ahly defender and with the left foot of the Tunisian back.
Before Al-Ahly’s goal in Al-Ittihad of Monastir, Abdel Moneim scored a goal for Al-Ahly in his confrontation with Petrojet in the first match of former Portuguese coach Ricardo Soares.

Abdel Moneim’s first goal in the red shirt came against Moroccan Raja in the second leg of the 8th round, which gave his team a precious equalizer from the Mohammed V compound.

Before moving to Al-Ahly, Abdel Moneim also headed with the Egyptian team in Sudan in the 2022 African Cup of Nations to score his first international goal in his career in the tournament, of which he was one of its stars.

The Al-Ahly defender scored in the Pharaohs shirt in a friendly match against Liberia at the end of last month with his head as well.
At the level of the league, Abdel Moneim did not score with Al-Ahly or Future, but his goal with Smouha came against Al-Ittihad two years and a month ago as his first goal in his professional career, where he played on loan to the Alexandrian club and scored with a header in the coastal city derby.
And he scored in the same season with Smouha the second and last goal in the league championship and the only one he scored with his foot and was in the clearing net in the match that ended in a 1-1 draw.
