Ali Pyramids won the “Ambition” 1/2 in extra time with a golden header from Hamdi Fathi after a magic pass by Hussein Al-Shahat, which he scored in the empty goal after a wrong exit from Ahmed Al-Shennawy, and after Mahmoud Kahraba’s first goal, then Pyramids equalized with the goal of Tunisian Walid Al-Karti
Al-Ahly club won the 38th cup title
Despite the deserved expulsion from referee Amin Omar of defender Mohamed Abdel Moneim in the match, this will not prevent him from participating in the Egyptian Super Cup with Zamalek in the Emirates next month.
Al-Ahly will also play with Moroccan Raja in Cairo, the first leg match of the quarter-finals of the African Champions, on Saturday, April 22, in the presence of a large audience, after their success in the Sudanese Al-Hilal match, which returned the Al-Ahly World Cup club to its right track and compete for its 11th title for the African Princess in the Champions League.
Swiss coach Marcel Kohler won the second championship (in just 6 months) after the Super Cup
Al-Ahly deprived Pyramids of achieving its first titles despite the huge investments from its Emirati owner, Salem Al-Shamsi, “and before him the Saudi Turki Al-Sheikh,” who issued a decision before the match to stop his investments in the club, objecting to assigning the match to an Egyptian crew and not a foreign referee, after the Portuguese Pereira, official of the Egyptian Referees Committee, refused.
The legend Mahmoud Al-Khatib, President of Al-Ahly Club, endured himself despite his illness, and attended the coronation of the cup with Kabir Al-Yawaran, representing President Al-Sisi, with the Minister of Sports, Dr. Ashraf Sobhi

The Egyptian Cup is the oldest tournament in the Republic since 1917, but what we saw on the air of hammering two “nails” to install the name of the winner on the base of the wooden cup is not appropriate compared to the engraving of the name of the winner of the European Champions League in a smooth and professional way
Al-Ahly won a new championship, No. 144, in its long history since 1907, which made it the crowned king of Egypt and Africa, by winning the lion’s share of local and continental titles.
