Egypt and Al-Ahly keeper El-Shenawy banned four games for striking referee

What Happened

Al-Ahly goalkeeper Mohamed El-Shenawy received a four-match ban and 50,000 Egyptian pounds fine for striking a referee during Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Ceramica Cleopatra. El-Shenawy, on the bench, reacted after officials denied Al-Ahly's penalty appeal for handball in stoppage time. The suspension sidelines Egypt's expected World Cup starter until the final week of league playoffs. Al-Ahly currently sits third with 41 points.
