Al Ahly coach Marcel Koller is looking to Bafana Bafana attacker Percy Tau to inspire the team in familiar South African conditions and against a familiar foe in Mamelodi Sundowns.
The Egyptian Red Devils take on the Brazilians in this anticipated Champions League group stages clash at Loftus where they are desperate for maximum points.Three points for Al Ahly will significantly refresh their chances of qualifying for the knockout stages as they have only managed one win from three matches while Sundowns will secure a place in the next round with a win.
“I know we have played many times in South Africa and we haven't won, perhaps it is circumstances like the weather but what I can assure our supporters is that we are going to fight to win our first match here in South Africa on Saturday,” said the 34-year-old, adding they will use not use having to play at 3pm as an excuse.“It is not a matter of a psychological problem but obviously in the whole world in competitions like the Champions League no one plays at 3pm any more.
