African champions were overtaken by UEFA Champions League winners in Qatar
Pitso Mosimane lost his first game as Al Ahly coach when they fell 2-0 to Bayern Munich in the semifinals of the FIFA Club World Cup on Monday night.
The Egyptian giants will now face Copa Libertadores Palmeiras in the battle for bronze on Thursday.
This is what Twitter made of Al Ahly’s defeat against the European champions.
They are not the results we wanted. We will have to improve in many aspects. World Cup football will always show you that you still have a lot of work to do. Most, especially when you play against Champions of Europe. I tasted my first loss, yuck! https://t.co/QOrWDrZNpG

FT: Al Ahly 0-2 Bayern. It wasn’t meant to be for Pitso and his side. They can keep their heads high as just two goals from none other than Robert Lewandowski made the difference. Pitso Mosimane’s unbeaten streak with Al Ahly came to an end after 23 matches.
18 wins, 4 draws, 1 loss

Al Ahly would be proud of how they defended and kept the score to a more respectable margin, showed discipline and did everything as a unit, although in the first half I could see the anxiety in them, valuable lessons. pic.twitter.com/qHwMBXM8ut

Al Ahly is going to ruin Pitso Mosimane’s resume, he should go to Manchester United … pic.twitter.com/2XCk1Tu9X3

Pitso said all of his African teams dream of being where they are, counting the sunsets, imagining Mvala there scoring Coman. pic.twitter.com/laaK01QUha

Bayern-Al Ahly 2-0 FT
Very decent, Al Ahly’s second half came off cheeky and proactive, but the lack of a suitable striker and having Neuer up front have made their efforts disappear.
Bayern looked tired and stressed by a great pace in the 1st half, could be an alert for the final– Tancredi Palmeri (@tancredipalmeri) February 8, 2021
Al Ahly manager Pitso Mosimane’s first loss in 23 games since taking over from the Egyptians.
It is not a shame that his impressive record ended by #UCL champions.
Having previously trained Sundowns for a game at the #ClubWC, will be lucky for the third time against Palmeiras on Thursday.

Very respectable performance from Badr Benoun, despite Al Ahly losing 2-0 to Bayern. The Moroccan international recorded five successful punts, more than any other player on the field. #CWC pic.twitter.com/zohvXHXrCH
