The member of the Egyptian League of Professional Football teams Amer Hussein announced postponing the final of the Egypt Cup after the qualification of Al Ahly to the final. 

The main reason for the postponement is the participation of Al Ahly in the CAF Champions League and FIFA Club World Cup.

Al Ahly qualified for the 2022 Egypt Cup final following a 3-1 victory over Smouha at the Cairo international stadium on Tuesday night.

The semi-finals of the Egypt Cup have resumed, two months after the quarter-finals were played back in November.

On Monday, Pyramids secured their spot in the final after beating Zamalek in the penalty shootout after playing a 1-1 draw for 120 minutes.

A day later, Al Ahly hosted Smouha in Cairo to discover who will face Pyramids FC in the final scheduled to take place in February.

The starting line-up for Al Ahly witnessed a huge surprise as Mahmoud Kahraba was given the start by Marcel Koller following the end of his suspension.
