Badr Benoun, Al Ahly’s Moroccan defender, revealed his happiness after today's victory over Zamalek SC, in his first appearance in the Cairo derby. 

“It is an important win, but it is just three points in a long road. We missed many key players, but we dealt with the situation in a positive way. Also, we knew that they were under pressure to win more than us.”

“This is my first appearance against Zamalek SC and I am happy to defeat them in my debut.”

“We have a great group of players and they are all top players. Beckham and Lotfy had an amazing game tonight and helped us to win the match.”

“It is a special feeling to wear Al Ahly’s jersey. The fans make you feel like a star and they always demand to achieve more victories and titles. I joined Al Ahly from Raja Casablanca, which is a superpower in Morocco and I am used to this feeling.”
