To reach the final, Al-Ahly will have to overcome the challenge posed by Brazilians Fluminense in the semi-final scheduled for Monday. “We are only thinking about the semi-final.

This meeting promises to be an intense clash between two teams determined to win the prestigious Club World Cup title. Al Ahly fans are eagerly waiting to see how the team will approach this crucial match under Koller’s strategic leadership, hoping that they will add another victory to their already impressive record.
