Congratulations to Al Ahly of Egypt and Etoile du Sahel of Tunisia, who both advanced to the
African Champions League final this weekend.
Etoile were the first to advance on Saturday, 3-1 over Sudan's Al Hilal.
The Sudanese won the first leg in Omdurman 2-1, meaning Etoile needed only a 1-0 home victory on
Saturday to go through, thanks to their away goal.
The biggest club competition in African football continues this weekend with the first legs of the
semifinals of the African Champions League.
First off, Al Ittihad of Libya take on defending champions Al Ahly from neighboring Egypt in
Tripoli on Sunday. The Libyans have already upset the script by reaching the final four in their
first year of participation in the group phase since the format of Africa's top club competition
was changed 11 years ago.
It's here. The biggest continental competition in Africa celebrates its semifinals round, one more
game to go before the grand final.
Saturday's African Champions League semifinal between Etoile du Sahel of Tunisia and Sudan's Al
Hilal will produce a landmark result - whatever the outcome.
If Etoile can overcome their 2-1 deficit from the first leg in Omdurman, they will be in their
fifth consecutive continental final.
