Al Ahly 2-0 FC Platinum | Match Highlights | CAF Champions League
Walid Soliman scored twice as Ahly strolled to a 2-0 home win over Zimbabwe’s Platinum to move joint top of their African Champions League group on Saturday.
Soliman gave Ahly an early lead with a powerful header and converted a second-half penalty to ensure the win, the second successive victory for the Red Devils after they beat Sudan’s Al-Hilal 2-1 in Cairo in their previous match.
The record eight-time winners, who are eyeing their first Champions League crown since 2013, moved level on six points with Al-Hilal and Tunisia’s Etoile Sahel after three matches in what could be a tight race for the two quarter-final tickets.
Platinum lie at the bottom with no points following three defeats.
