Al Ahly have suffered an African Football League exit after losing 1-0 on aggregate to Mamelodi Sundowns in the semi-finals.
After their first-leg defeat to Sundowns last week, Al Ahly were looking to turn the tide in their second meeting at the Cairo International Stadium on Wednesday.
Marcel Koller made several changes to his starting lineup as Akram Tawfik made his return at right-back with Mahmoud Kahraba and Hussein El-Shahat being deployed upfront.
The Reds had a promising start to the game and nearly capitalised on a shaky Sundowns backline as the early pressure forced multiple defensive errors from the visitors.
