Ibrahim Adel scored twice and provided two assists as Nordsjaelland thrashed Randers 6–1 away in the Danish Superliga on Sunday.
The Egyptian winger struck in the 53rd and 75th minutes, helping his side respond to a Randers equaliser with five second-half goals at Cepheus Park.
Adel played the full match, taking his league tally to four goals and three assists in 14 appearances this season.
He first made his mark by setting up Alexander Lind’s opener in the 25th minute, giving Nordsjaelland a lead they held until half-time.
Mike Themsen brought Randers level five minutes after the restart, but Adel restored the visitors’ advantage just three minutes later from a Lind assist.
Peter Ankersen made it 3–1 in the 55th minute before Hjalte Boe Rasmussen added a fourth eight minutes later.
Adel then scored his second from a Nicklas Røjkjær assist in the 75th minute. Lind completed the scoring in the 80th, joining the Egyptian on two goals for the afternoon.
The win lifted Nordsjaelland to fourth with 23 points from 14 matches, while Randers dropped to 11th on 11 points.
Adel had also scored in Nordsjaelland’s previous league outing, a 3–2 home defeat to Midtjylland in which they surrendered a two-goal lead. Sunday’s result followed Thursday’s 2–0 loss at Monaco in the Conference League.
His latest double comes after he scored twice in the 2–2 European draw against CSKA Sofia on October 22.
The performance comes ahead of Egypt’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Malawi on November 13 and 17, their first matches under new head coach Ali Maher.
