The Chelsea midfielder was one-on-one with Egypt keeper Essam Al-Hadari but the veteran goalie parried the low shot away.
Minutes later, Zidan connected with a corner-kick and flicked the ball but it was cleared off the line.
Ahmed Al-Muhammadi darted down the right flank more than once and his crosses made troubles for the English defense.
But it was a pass from Hosni Abd-Rabou that created the first goal, sending a long pass towards Zidan, who brilliantly tamed it before smashing past Robert Green.
Lampard had a second golden chance inside the Egyptian area, but his deflected shot went wide.
