The victory over Sun Downs in Pretoria, the goal of Al-Ahly coach
Petso Mosimane, coach of the first football team of the Egyptian Al-Ahly Club, confirmed that he wishes to win over Sun Downs when the two teams meet in Pretoria next Saturday in the second leg of the quarter-finals of the tournament.
Al-Ahly beat Sun Downs 2-0 last Saturday in the first leg of the quarter-finals of the tournament.
Musimani confirmed in statements to Al-Ahly Club today, Tuesday, that despite winning the first-leg match, the team did not qualify for the semifinals.
Musimani said, "If someone talks to me before the first Sun Downs match in Cairo and asks me if winning with a goal or two is a good result, my response will be yes, it will be good. Winning is important in general, but there is nothing guaranteed in football, and winning two goals did not determine our qualification."
He added, "I spoke with the players in our first interview, after the first leg, and congratulated them on the victory, and told them that we won in one game, but there is a second half, and I focused on the positive aspects at the beginning of the team's preparations for the rematch."
He explained that the confrontation of Sun Downs will undoubtedly be difficult for the two teams, and the first match for Al-Ahly against Sun Downs was lost here in Pretoria, and for the second time he achieved a draw, and I hope that the victory will be our ally in the next confrontation.
He stressed that Al-Ahly faced Zamalek in the Egyptian League and then went to the first leg against Sun Downs and is currently preparing for the return match, and after that, the Burkan renaissance face in the Super Cup, all of which are very strong confrontations, and this is the characteristic of the big teams, when you play in a team the size of Al-Ahly, you must You are always ready to compete amid pressures and various matches between local and continental, and before that, the Club World Cup.
He said that there are injuries in the team now, but Al-Ahly is able to overcome them, and when you play in 3 different tournaments, it is certain that there will be injuries in light of the succession of matches.
