We still remember and celebrate our iconic 6-1 victory over Zamalek in 2002, but thanks to our victory in the CAF Champions League Final, we are now having another 6-1 for us over Zamalek in Africa.

Friday night’s victory is our sixth victory over our rivals in African competitions and we only lost one match against them.

Our first match against Zamalek in Africa was in 1994 in the CAF Super Cup and we lost the match 1-0.

11 years later, we met Zamalek again in the CAF Champions League semi-finals and won both legs 2-0 and 2-1.

Our third victory over Zamalek in the African Competitions came in 2008 when we won one match over Zamalek in the competition’s group stage while the second match ended with a draw.

We achieved our fourth victory over Zamalek in the 2012 CAF Champions League group stage thanks to a goal from Mohamed Abou Trika, while the fifth victory came at the same stage in 2013.
