Pitso Mosimane

Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane and his coaching staff have given their players some time off ahead of their Caf Champions League final encounter on 27 November.

The Red Devils recently won their 42nd Egyptian Premier League title after curising to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Talea El Geish in the final match of the domestic season through goals from Walid Soliman, Geraldo and Kahraba. 

'Al Ahly’s coaching staff decided to give our players an additional rest for four more days following the team’s 3-0 victory over Talaea El Geish,' reads a statement.

'Our first team will come back to training on Saturday in order to start the preparations for the CAF Champions League's final which will be played on November 27th.'

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
