Horoya AC 0-0 Al Ahly | CAF Champions League | Highlights
Egypt’s Ahly failed to make the most of the few chances they created to settle for a 0-0 draw with Guinea’s Horoya AC in Conakry in the first leg of their African Champions League quarter-final on Friday.
In a scrappy game, Ahly were barely threatened and missed out on securing a vital away win after wasting some easy opportunities, including two gilt-edged that fell to substitute Salah Mohsen in the second half.
The last year’s runners-up will be firm favourites to advance to the last four when they host Horoya in the second leg at Cairo’s Al-Salam Stadium on 22 September but the Guineans can still fancy their chances of causing a huge upset and ousting the mighty Cairo club.
Ahly are eyeing a record-extending ninth title and their first since 2013.
