Manchester City, the winners of the UEFA Champions League and Premier League, congratulated, Sunday, Al Ahly on qualifying for the FIFA Club World Cup.
The Citizens tweeted in Arabic: "Congratulations to Al Ahly on winning the CAF Champions League," adding: "See you in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia."
Egypt's Al Ahly has claimed their 11th record-breaking CAF Champions League title, despite battling to a late 1-1 stalemate against Wydad Casablanca at the celebrated Mohammed V Stadium.
Mohamed El-Shennawy made a triumphant return to the squad for the Casablanca encounter, stepping into the role of Mostafa Shobier following his injury recovery. On the opposing side, Sven Vandenbroeck shuffled his team lineup after their defeat in Cairo, with Mohamed Ounajem and Saifeddine Bouhra replacing Reda Jaadi and Zouhair El Moutaraji.
