We tried to enter the stadium but we couldn’t but my happiness is just as if I entered the stadium, this is the 12th championship, this number is just twice the number our rivals have, we are the champions of Africa and no one can ever reach that number." Alaa Sayed, an Al Ahly fan said in Arabic.
Essam also an Al Ahly fan is hopeful the next game will also be a good one.
"Congratulations to Al Ahly and their fans congratulations to Egypt, and hopefully we will see you again in the 13th championship."
