First Team, Al Ahly in World Cup, Football

Al Ahly became the African and Middle Eastern club with the most victories in the FIFA Club World Cup, having won five matches in six participations in the competition.

The Red Eagles' five victories in the competition put the club in third place in terms of the number of games won in the tournament, behind Real Madrid CF, who won 10 matches, and FC Barcelona, who achieved 7 victories.

Our football first team managed to win the bronze medal in the 2020 FIFA Club World Cup, after defeating Brazil’s Palmeiras 3-2 on penalties. 

As a result, Al Ahly became the first Arab and African club to win the bronze medal of this prestigious competition on two occasions, after repeating our achievement of 2006.

On a similar note, Al Ahly’s victory over Palmeiras is the first victory of an Egyptian team over a Brazilian side in an official game, after both SC Internacional and SC Corinthians Paulista defeated Al Ahly in the FIFA Club World Cup in 2006 and 2012.
