Ex-Mamelodi Sundowns coach Mosimane: Why I left El-Shennawy to talk to Al Ahly players

The now two-time African Champions League winner explained what happened in the dressing room at half-time during Friday night's final in Cairo

Al Ahly coach Pitso Mosimane has admitted he had his doubts during half-time of the Caf Champions League final against Zamalek at the Cairo International Stadium on Friday night.

Zamalek had been looking for their sixth Champions League title and first since 2002, and Al Ahly were out for a ninth crown, and their first since 2013, having lost in two finals since then.

In a tight and thrilling game, Al Ahly took an early fifth-minute lead through Amr Al Sulaya.
