Caf Champions League: Mosimane’s Al Ahly through to semi-finals after Raja Casablanca draw
The South African mentor continued with his fine run with the Red Devils after they reached the last four at the expense of the Moroccan outfit
Pitso Mosimane’s Al Ahly reached the semi-finals of the Caf Champions League after securing a 1-1 draw against Raja Casablanca in their quarter-final return-leg fixture at Mohammed V Stadium on Friday night.
The Red Devils had won the first leg meeting 2-1 at WE Al-Ahly Stadium in Cairo six days ago, and as such, they booked their last four slot in the continental competition on a 3-2 aggregate win.
However, it was the Democratic Republic of Congo forward Fabrice Ngoma, who put the Moroccan giants ahead in the fifth minute before Mohamed Abdelmonem scored the leveller in the 44th minute.
Mosimane’s compatriot Percy Tau started up top for Al Ahly alongside Taher Mohamed, Amr El Solia, and Mali international Aliou Dieng, while last season's Champions League Golden Boot winner Mohamed Sherif was dropped to the bench.
