Simba SC 0-1 Al Ahly SC - Al Ahly and Ahmed Nabil Koka steal a victory in Dar El Salam

It was a frustrating match for the hosts who peppered the Egyptian goal with countless chances, but could not convert a single one of them. We look back on the match and ponder themes such as collective psychology and what ask what the return leg has in store for us.
