Al Ahly’s assistant coach Sami Komsan revealed that he was not surprised with the team’s performance in the match against AS Vita Club, adding that Al Ahly fully-deserve the victory.

“We were unlucky in the first game in Cairo but today we were lucky and deserved to score three goals and win the match. Al Ahly players are always capable of overcoming these difficult challenges.”

“The rainfall before the match reduced the temperature which improved the surface of the pitch.”

“The coaching staff, led by Pitso Mosimane, managed the game successfully and altered the game plan many times during the game.”

“Al Ahly players won the treble last season and we fully trust them. I ask our fans to keep supporting the team as we still have two important games against Al Merrikh SC and Simba SC and we want to finish the group stage at the top of the group.”
