Al Ahly to face Kaizer Chiefs in the FINAL after defeating Esperance 3-0

Al Ahly beat ES Tunis 3-0 in Cairo after a 1-0 victory in Tunisia in the first leg.

Al Ahly nine-time winners of the CAF Champions League took the semi-final tie 4-0 on aggregate after Ali Maaloul netted a penalty in the first half, with Esperance left-back Ilyes Chetti sent off for his role in the incident.

Mohamed Sherif added a second and Hussein El Shahat a third to seal an emphatic victory for Ahly’s South African coach Pitso Mosimane, who helped them to the trophy last year and also won with Mamelodi Sundowns in 2016.

Mosimane will now be targeting his third Champions League crown as a coach, having won it with Sundowns in 2016 and with Ahly last year, just a few months after joining the Egyptian club.

Al Ahly will face South Africa’s Kaizer Chiefs on July 17 to battle for the CAF Champions League TITLE.
