Pitso Mosimane Claims Another Bit of Silverware with Al Ahly! This match was more complicated than expected for the African champions.
El Ghaish, the much less fancied opponents, gave Al Ahly a big fright in the game. Al Ahly took the lead in the 65th minute.
But despite going down to 10 men, El Ghaish were able to equalise in the dying embers of the match. The match went into extra time and the score remained 1-0. Al Ahly eventually won 3-2 on penalties.

Pitso Mosimane has now completed a second treble in ONE season. A feat that will surely remain unmatched for decades on the African continent.
When he joined the club at the end of September, the league was somewhat already won. Pitso was quick to thank and congratulate Rene Weiler for this.
However, Pitso navigated the journey to African glory. He has done the same with the Egyptian Cup.
To put Pitso’s achievements into perspective, this is Al Ahly’s second ever treble. In their long, decorated history, they have only managed to secure the treble on one occasion before Pitso and his staff came along.
To put this into further context, Al Ahly have achieved two trebles since they were formed in 1907 while Pitso Mosimane has achieved two trebles in one season.
The cup is a record extending 37th Egyptian Cup for Al Ahly.

Last week’s CAF Champions League win was another record extending 9th title. Their first in 7 years.
Critics want to see how Pitso will fare next season. Whether he’d be able to match these successes when he has an entire season.
