Al Ahly prepare for SuperSport United clash
Ahly makes changes for SuperSport clash
Posted: 2011-03-29 12:46
Al Ahly coach Manuel Jose has decided to exclude Shehab Ahmed from the team's squad for the weekend's CAF Champions League clash against Supersport United, and has surprisingly included Ahmed Nabil ‘Manga'.
Shehab, who was a regular under Jose's predecessors Hossam Al-Badri and Zizo, was overlooked ahead of the first leg, which Ahly won 2-0 in Cairo two weeks ago.
The 20-year-old midfielder once again missed out on the round of 32 tie with no apparent reason for his omission.
Egypt's Hossam Ghaly, Wael Gomaa, Ahmed Fathi, Sayed Moawad, Mohamed Shawky, Mohamed Abou-Treika and Geddo are already in South Africa after taking part in Saturday's CAN 2012 qualifier.
There was also no place for Liberian striker Francis Doe while goalkeeper Sherif Ekrami is still out with a knee injury.
The Ahly squad travelling to South Africa is:
Goalkeeper: Mahmoud Aboul-Saoud, Ahmed Adel
Defenders: Hossam Ghaly, Ahmed Al-Sayed, Sherif Abdul-Fadil, Mohamed Samir, Wael Gomaa, Sayed Moawad, Ahmed Fathi, Ayman Ashraf
Midfielders: Mohamed Abou-Treika, Moataz Eno, Ahmed Shokri, Hossam Ashour, Mohamed Shawky, Manga
Strikers: Mohamed Fadl, Osama Hosni, Geddo, Dominique da Silva
