Pyramids FC and El Gounah shared the points in a 1-1 draw in the Egyptian Premier League on January 29, 2026, a result that frustrated the home side's ambitions. Playing at the 30 June Stadium, Pyramids FC were held by a determined El Gounah team that executed a disciplined defensive game plan. The match saw Pyramids FC take the lead in the second half through a penalty, but their advantage was short-lived as El Gounah hit back almost immediately with a well-taken goal on the counter-attack. The key moments included a disallowed goal for Pyramids FC for offside and a crucial late save from the El Gounah goalkeeper to preserve the draw. This result represented two points dropped for Pyramids FC in their chase for a continental qualification spot, while the single point was a valuable one for El Gounah in their efforts to climb away from the lower reaches of the league table.
