ENPPI took a 76th-minute lead through Mostafa Shalaby and looked well on course to upsetting their more illustrious opponents as the clock ticked past the 90-minute mark.
However, Al Ahly were not to be denied and defender Ali Maaloul scored in the 95th and 97th minutes to give Jingles’ team an unlikely 2-1 win.
The three points would’ve eased some mounting pressure on Mosimane and his team who had gone four league matches without a victory prior to kick-off.
