#CAF Champions League

Al Ahly head coach Jess Thorup expects a challenging CAF Champions League quarter-final against Tunisia’s Esperance Sportive de Tunis, but insists the Red Eagles are focused solely on a semi-final berth.

Defending champions Al Ahly have been drawn against Tunisian side Esperance Sportive de Tunis in the CAF Champions League quarter-finals, following the draw ceremony in Cairo on Tuesday.

Al Ahly head coach Jess Thorup lauded his side’s "strong performance" against Morocco’s AS FAR, despite being held to a goalless draw in the final round of the CAF Champions League group stage.
