Sayed Abdel Hafeez, Al-Ahly soccer coach, said that Mohamed El-Shennawi and Ayman Ashraf, the team’s players, are ready to take part in the Moroccan Wydad match.
Al-Ahly will visit Wydad next Saturday to face him in the first leg of the semi-finals of the CAF Champions League.
Abdel Hafeez told FilGoal.com, saying: “Al-Ahly fans have assured Al-Shennawi and Ayman Ashraf that they will play the match normally.”
On the authority of Mahmoud Abdel Moneim “Kahraba”, he said: “We decided to take him with us on the trip, and we do not know his chances of participating until now.”
And Mohamed El-Shenawy trained today, Monday, for the third time in a row, without any complaint of pain, as he suffers a contraction of the connective muscle. (See details)
While a source responsible for Al-Ahly – who requested anonymity – denied that Ayman Ashraf was injured in the calf muscle, and that the player continues to classify normally.
FilGoal.com previously revealed that Kahraba will travel to Morocco, despite her posterior muscle injury, and that there are still chances for her to participate in the match. (See details)
“We will travel tomorrow, Tuesday, at 3 in the afternoon, from Cairo airport, and Pitso Mosimane, the team’s coach, has decided to accompany all those registered in Africa except for the injured,” continued Abdel Hafeez.
And when asked if Wydad’s loss of the league title would put pressure on Al-Ahly, he replied: “We are talking about the semi-finals of the African Champions League, and all teams reached that stage after great difficulties.”
He continued: “Local results are not broadcast to African competitions, so any exhibition team loses a title locally and wins in Africa.”
He concluded: “Regardless of everything, the clashes between Al-Ahly and Al-Wadad are strong, and we seek to achieve a positive result before the return meeting.”
