Egypt's Al Ahly are now in Asia, ready to face the world's best clubs in the FIFA Club World Cup,
the FIFA-sanctioned club world championship played every year in Japan.
Although England's Manchester United are favored, the reigning African champions have a ton of
confidence.
*They recently won their record sixth African championship, beating Cameroon's Coton Sport 4-2 on
aggregate.
Al Ahly are in Japan for the FIFA Club World Cup and while they hold allusions of winning the
tournament this time around, their anxiety is beginning to show.
Yesterday, Ahly coach Manuel Jose accused their first-round opponents, Mexico's Pachuca, of sending
spies to their training camp.
Hoy viernes por fin los Tuzos del Pachuca iniciarán su nueva aventura en busca del trofeo de
campeón mundial, y es que se medirán en su primer encuentro y vital ante el Al Ahly de
Egipto. Juego en donde el que pierda se va directito a su casa y eso lo sabe muy bien [...]
It was only last month that Al Ahly won a record sixth Champions League title in
Cameroon last month, but fans and managers alike have already switched their attention to next
season's elite club competition. The fixtures for the first and second rounds have been announced
in Cairo.
Oh, that was disappointing ...
Egypt's Al Ahly finished sixth at the FIFA Club World Cup in Japan on Thursday after
suffering a 1-0 defeat against Adelaide United of Australia.
Brazilian Cristiano scored a 25-yard screamer in the 7th minute to ensure that the African
champions finish last at this year's tournament.
As we close in on the time to select an African Player of the Year, how about Egypt's Mohamed
Aboutrika?
Aboutrika sports an excellent resume: he's won 2 African Cup of Nations with Egypt, won 3 African
Champions Leagues with Egyptian club team Al Ahly and conquered 4 league titles with the Egyptian
powerhouse.
You know a competition is struggling for respect when the favourites to win the thing promising to
take it seriously is considered news. Man Utd boss Alex Ferguson has declared "I'll take my
strongest team," which should go without saying for a tournament that's technically (but only
technically) the pinnacle of club football.

Disappointment reigns for Egypt's Al Ahly this morning as the African Champions crashed out of the
FIFA Club World Cup, losing 4-2 to Mexico's Pachuca.
Ahly took the lead through a Fausto Pinto own goal in the 28th minute.
Flavio then made it 2-0 with a goal on the counter-attack just before half-time, but Pachuca
came storming back after the interval.
Creo que todos aquí recordamos lo que pasó hace un año con el Pachuca en el Mundial
de Clubes, el Etoile Sportive du Sahel de Túnez eliminó al "Equipo de
México" en la primera fase, para así ser la peor actuación de un club mexicano
en la justa internacional. Ahora, veo a los Tuzos mejor [...
