South African Kavin Johnson arrives in Cairo on Tuesday to assume the role of the second man in the new coaching staff of the Al-Ahly club.
Petso Mosimane, coach of the Al-Ahly club, decided to seek the services of the 61-year-old coach to take over the position of general coach on the team’s coaching staff for the next term, after Pitso signed a two-season contract to coach to the team.
Caffeine Johnson had previously faced Al-Ahly in the African Champions League, and was able to pull off an upset and beat the Red Genie in the first leg of round 16 of the tournament.
Caffeine was taking over the task of coaching the South African Platinum Stars, a team that faced Al-Ahly in the round of 16 of the tournament after beating the Reunion Islands buffers in the round of 32, 3-1 in total.
Caffeine took advantage of the absence of Al-Ahly, who at that time traveled to South Africa Without Emad Al-Nahhas, who suffered a torn cruciate ligament in his knee and was confirmed absent for 6 months, and Ahmed Fathi, who suffered a torn Achilles tendon and confirmed his absence from the field during the same period.
Platinum was able to achieve a victory over Al-Ahly with two goals to one in the first leg of round 16, following the first Platinum Stars goal scored by Momatong in the 11th minute of the second half, taking advantage of a defensive error by Al- Ahly and tied for red giant Imad Mutab in the 37th minute of the same half, then scored Player Eduardo Williams scored the winning goal for his team in the first minute of injury time in the second half.
Caffeine managed to register his name as the first technical coach to lead a South African team to achieve the first victory of his country’s teams over the Al-Ahly club, despite the presence in the match of players such as Mohamed Abu Trika, Imad Mutaib, Mohamed Barakat and Amadou Flavio.
The match witnessed dangerous opportunities on the part of the two teams that would have resulted in a better result for the South African team, in light of massive defensive errors by the Al-Ahly players, but Gilberto and Amir Abdel Hamid were the most prominent opponents of the owner attacks in the first half.
In the second leg in the same round, Al-Ahly managed to win a clean double at the Cairo Stadium through Emad Muteb and Amado Flavio, and the team managed in this version of the competition to win the continental title.
Prior to Al-Ahly’s showdown with Platinum South Africa, the Red Genie fought 7 matches in which no South African team was able to achieve a positive result until the caffeine hit and made history.
Kavin’s victory over the Al-Ahly Club and his entry into history, led by the South African team to defeat the Red Genie, made him the chief adviser to talk about the important clashes that bring the South African teams together in the Al -Ahly Club or even the Egyptian team, in addition to other South African teams to achieve victory over Al-Ahly such as Orlando and Sun Downs.
The last technical advice given by Caffeine, was before the match between Egypt and South Africa in the last African Nations Championship, in which the pharaohs lost a clean goal, and the team led by Javier Aguirre was deposited in the competition.
Then the caffeine declared to the site iol.co.zaSouth Africa “To beat the Egyptian teams, you have to be tactically aware of what they are doing in the game. They are good technically, but they don’t have as many tricks during the game as we do.”
And he added: “They play simple and advance to your stadium step by step. Surprise them and catch them in the first half. You will win due to psychological factors. North African players like to fall in the penalty area and complain a lot to the referees, you have to deal with okay with that. “
