Al Ahly of Egypt defeated on Tuesday the Congolese Vita Club with three unanswered goals to jump to the second spot of the Group A to move closer to qualify for the quarter finals of the CAF Champions League group stage.

Mohamed Sheriff had opened the scoring for Al Ahly after  only six minutes, when he received a well-played pass from forward Marwan Mohsen, as he clipped the ball into the top of the net with a great right-foot shot.

Mohamed Magdy Afsha doubled the scoring for the African Champion in the 19th minute, after making an excellent move from the right position to fire a powerful shot, hitting the bar and getting into the net.

Marwan Mohsen wasted a great chance in the 15th minute when he went on a one-to-one position, but his weak shot saved by the goalkeeper.

Taher Mohamed Taher added the third for the Red Devils, after receiving a well-played pass form Walter Bwalya, to net from a very close range into the net in the 78th minute.
