Sundowns narrowly beat Al-Ahly to set up intriguing AFL second leg in Cairo
The Brazilians beat Al-Ahly 1-0 at Loftus Versfeld on Sunday afternoon to put them in a good position going to the second leg in Cairo on Wednesday.
PRETORIA. - Mamelodi Sundowns put one toe in the final of the African Football League with their 1-0 win over Al-Ahly at Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Sunday afternoon. It's one toe, and not the whole foot because when the Red Devils are in Cairo – they are a different animal. For Sundowns to reach the final, they must try to beat Al-Ahly in Cairo on Wednesday because going there for a draw would be suicidal.
The mutual respect and shared interests were evident in the number of Palestinian flags that flew at the stadium. A section of South Africans sympathizes with Palestine, especially those who suffered from the brutality of apartheid while Egypt is neighbors with Israel – which means the humanitarian crisis developing in Palestine would directly impact them, with Gaza refugees seeking shelter in Egypt.
