The African majors Al-Ahly claimed their ninth CAF Champions League title yesterday with a historic 2-1 victory over Zamalek in Cairo.
Throughout the CAF Champions League, some of Al-Ahly’s players made their impact and played a key role in helping their team claim a long-awaited coronation that ended a seven-year drought without winning the club’s favorite title.
Ali Ma’loul:
The Tunisian left-back put up impressive performances throughout the tournament to reach the CL final with the Red Devils. Al-Ahly reached the final of the 2017 and 2018 editions but did not have the luck on their side to lift the trophy. Ali Ma’loul scored 4 goals and created 3 in 9 games.
Mohamed Al-Shennawy:
Al-Ahly goalkeeper Mohamed Al-Shennawy was one of the main reasons the Red Devils took the title this year. The closer played 12 games, achieving a clean sheet in six of them and conceding 6 goals throughout the campaign. They also managed to save a crucial penalty against Wydad Casablanca in the semi-final first leg..
Hussein Al-Shahat:
Al-Shahat is one of the most prominent players on Ahly’s team. Having played 11 matches in the competition, Al-Shahat became the team’s top scorer with 6 goals, as well as providing the most assists by creating 7 goals. His most brilliant moment was his magnificent goal against Wydad Casablanca in the second leg of the semi-final..
Amr He used to:
The Solia who appeared in 14 games this season is considered one of the crucial pillars of the team’s midfield. He provided three assists and scored one of the tournament’s most prized goals in the final game against historic rival Zamalek to give his team an early lead..
Mohamed Magdy “Afsha”:
With a shout in the 86th minute against Zamalek, Afsha gifted the precious African title to Al-Ahly fans by scoring one of the most beautiful goals in this year’s competition. Afsha played 9 games during this campaign scoring 3 crucial goals and creating 3. He has been voted man of the match after the last match in Cairo that sent his team to the Club World Cup in Qatar next year.
