Al -Ahly and Miras
Al -Ahly club received a new loss in the 2025 Club World Cup, after it fell against Palmeiras, Brazilian, with two goals without a response, in the second round of the first group, to complicate the position of the Egyptian team before the final round against Porto.
180 minutes without goals
Al -Ahly failed to score any goal during the first two games in the World Cup, as it tied negatively with Inter Miami in the opening round, before receiving the defeat against Palmeiras in the second round. Thus, the team fought 180 minutes without visiting the competitors’ nets, which is a disturbing indication of the technical staff led by Marcel Koler.
A continuous Brazilian knot
The loss against Palmeiras reopened the file of Al -Ahly’s suffering in front of the Brazilian clubs, as it is the sixth defeat of the Red Team in 7 confrontations in the Club World Cup in front of teams from the samba. Al -Ahly was only able to win one victory, it was also on Palmeiras, but on the penalty shootout in the 2020 version.
