On Wednesday, February 8, the FIFA Club World Cup semi-final between Al-Ahly Cairo and Real Madrid will take place. The game starts at 21:00 Kyiv time.
In Ukraine, the match is broadcast live by Megogo.
Real Madrid is the winner of the European Champions League, and as such, the Madrid club is exempt from the preliminary rounds of the Club World Cup (a representative of Latin America can also boast of a similar privilege – this time it is the Brazilian Flamengo). “Creamy” will start immediately from the semi-finals of the KChM. In this competition, “Madrid” has already become a triumph four times. And on the sidelines, Morocco can issue a fifth title for itself.
Al-Ahly from the capital of Egypt, Cairo, is one of the most titled clubs not only in the country, but also on the African continent. He became the champion of Egypt 42 times, won the African Champions League ten times. On its continent, Al-Ahli, now coached by renowned Swiss coach Marcel Koller, has dominated the last three seasons. In 2020 and 2021, the Cairo won the final of the African Champions League, but last year they lost to the Moroccan Vidad in the main match of the season. Despite the defeat, both of these clubs have played in the current Club World Cup.
