Al Ahly men’s basketball team won the National League title for the second consecutive time after defeating Al Ittihad of Alexandria in the competition’s final. 

Our youth team won the two legs of the final while our senior team bounced back after losing the first leg on Monday.

The day started with the Alexandrians having a 3-2 advantage in points from the first leg but an impressive 84-69 win for our youth team over Al Ittihad’s youth team revived our hopes to win the title.
