Al Ahly clinch 12th African Champions League title

Egyptian giants Al Ahly have won a record-extending 12th African Champions League title after defeating Esperance 1-0 in the second leg of the final in Cairo. This triumph marks their fourth Champions League victory in the last five years.

The first leg had ended goalless in Tunisia last Saturday, and the hosts took an early lead when Rami Rabia’s header from Hussein El Shahat’s corner deflected off Esperance midfielder Roger Aholou and into the bottom right-hand corner.

Wessam Abou Ali struck the side-netting and Percy Tau fired narrowly wide as Al Ahly looked to extend their lead before the break, while El Shahat was denied by visiting goalkeeper Amanallah Memmiche.

Yan Sasse curled off target for Esperance just after the hour mark and the Tunisian club struggled to create chances against a miserly Al Ahly defence.

Substitute Afsha came close to doubling the hosts’ advantage in the closing stages but his free-kick hit the crossbar, and Al Ahly saw out six minutes of added time to seal a 1-0 win on aggregate and a fourth triumph in five years.

Marcel Koller’s men went unbeaten throughout this season’s tournament – matching the feat of their 2005 side – with Mostafa Shobeir keeping nine consecutive clean sheets.

The Cairo club extended their unbeaten run in continental competition to 22 games, and won back-to-back Champions League titles for a fourth time.

Both Al Ahly and Esperance had already qualified for Fifa’s expanded 32-team Club World Cup, which will be held in the United States in June and July next year, alongside Wydad Casablanca and Mamelodi Sundowns.
