Al Ahly 3-0 FC Masr | Highlights | VIDEO

Ahly eased to a 3-0 victory over lowly FC Masr on Wednesday to return to winning ways after two straight draws in the Egyptian Premier League, with coach Rene Weiler finally starting to rotate his squad.

The Swiss was criticized by some pundits for sticking with his ideal starting line-up even after Ahly wrapped up the title with six rounds left last week.

But with an African Champions League semi-final against Morocco’s Wydad looming, Weiler opted to rest some regulars against FC Masr, including defensive midfielder Hamdi Fathi, playmaker Magdi Afsha and Angolan winger Geraldo.
