Emad Moteab (Arabic: عماد متعب) (born 20 February 1983 in Sharkia, Egypt) is an Egyptian football striker. He plays for Al-Ahly Egyptian club as well as the Egyptian national team. At his current club Al-Ahly, some have commented that his combination with Mohamed Aboutrika and Mohamed Barakat formed the most formidable triangle in African Football, and they were given the moniker of "The Bermuda Triangle." The Angolan striker Flávio Amado replaces Barakat sometimes, playing a great role in forming this dangerous triangle. Moteab is considered one of the best strikers of his age in Africa. On 14 November 2009, he scored a game changing goal in the very last minute of the match, this gave Egypt a 2–0 lead defeating the Algerian team (2–0), forcing an extra game in the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification, which Algeria won 1–0.
Emad Mohamed Abd El Naby Ibrahim was born in Sharqia Governorate east of Nile Delta, Egypt. He gained the nickname Moteab (Arabic: متعب) from his friends. He began his career with Al-Ahly Youth Academy when he was 13. His potential and scoring talent was discovered, causing Egyptian national U20 team coach Hassan Shehata to call him up for the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship. In this tournament he scored a superb goal against England.
