The loss complicates all hopes of making it to the next stage of the CAF Confederations cup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional reporting from the Nation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gor Mahia lost 4-0 away to Zamalek in a Caf Confederation Cup Group D match in Alexandria, Egypt, Sunday evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Goals\n by Mahmoud Alaa, Youssef Obama, Ferjani Sassi and Omar El Said did the \ntrick for the effiecient hosts at the El Borg Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This\n result leaves the Kenyan champions bottom of the four-team group, but \nstill with a chance of progressing to the quarter-finals of the \ntournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zamalek are top of the \npile with eight points, followed by Angolan club Petro Atletico in \nsecond place. Algerian side NA Hussein Day lie third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gor\n need a win against Petro in the final group game set for Kasarani to \nqualify to the last eight and coach Hassan Oktay will be hoping for a \nfar better performance in that contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just\n like against Dey in Algiers last week, Abdalla put Zamalek ahead in the\n tenth minute by heading into an empty net from a free kick after Samuel\n Onyango had fouled his man at the edge of the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Up until that moment, poor Gor should have \nbeen two goals down but were bailed out by an impressive Fredrick \nOnyango who was manning the goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Onyango saved a one on one chance with Ibrahim Obama after Ernest Wendo had carelessly lost possession in midfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\n was no denying Obama 12 minutes later though. The midfielder pounced on\n a loose ball and rifled home a shot from close range to make it 2-0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zamalek would add the two other goals in the final ten minutes of the game, and within a span of two minutes to seal the deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/news\/gor-mahia-go-down-to-zamalek-4-0\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gor Mahia went down to Zamalek 4-0 in what is the heaviest defeat the club has suffered since 2014 in<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14448","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14448","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14448"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14448\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14450,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14448\/revisions\/14450"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14448"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14448"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14448"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
