Africa-Press – Seychelles. <\/strong><\/span>Egyptian giants Al-Ahly will this Monday play their most important match this season when they meet Wydad of Morocco in the final of the CAF Champions League.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Reds are looking to win the Champions League for a record 3 times in a row with their South African coach Pitso Mosimane.<\/p>\n

If they achieve the feat, it will also be for a record extending 11th time.<\/p>\n

In the run up to the final, Al Ahly have been in dispute with the Confederation of African Football (CAF) for their decision to hold the match at the stade Mohammed V Stadium in Casablanca, the home ground of Wydad.<\/p>\n

CAF said Morocco and Senegal were the only countries who applied to host the final but Senegal’s withdrawal, without an explanation left little or no alternative.<\/p>\n

Wydad are looking for their third crown after winning the title in the 1992 and 2017 editions while their coach Walid Regragui seeks to repeat the feat of Al-Hussein Amota who won it in 2017.<\/p>\n

\u201cI told the players that we want to win the title, and it does not matter what form the performance is, history will mention Cup winners only” Regragui says.<\/p>\n
