Away from the public glory and the overwhelming joy that the fans of Al-Ahly and Zamalek are looking for next Friday night, when the two teams fight for the African Champions League title for the first time, there are other golden gains awaiting the crowned champion on the throne of the African continent.
The winner of the African Champions League is waiting for golden gains, led by participation in the FIFA Club World Cup 2021, and he will play the African Super match in Cairo against the Moroccan Confederation champion, Berkane, on December 10, and the winner will win 2.5 million dollars, equivalent to 40 million Egyptian pounds.
Since the launch of the first edition of the African Champions League in 1964, the two teams have never been part of the final from one country, but Al-Ahly and Zamalek were finally able to achieve this historic achievement, to confirm their leadership of African football.
Zamalek qualified for the final match after defeating Morocco’s Raja 4-1 in the home and away matches, while Al-Ahly qualified after defeating Wydad by five against a goal in the total of the two matches.
Ahly Zamalek faced during 4 previous copies of the African Champions League in 2005, 2008, 2012 and 2013, all of which ended with the crowning of the red genie as champion of the oldest competition in the African continent.
Al-Ahly did not know the taste of defeat against Zamalek in the African Championship, where it won five matches against a draw in three confrontations.
Zamalek achieved its only victory over Al-Ahly in the African Championships in Johannesburg, South Africa, when it beat the Red Genie (1-0) with the famous goal of Ayman Mansour, to crown the White Knight champion of the African Super Cup in 1994.
