Welcome to FilGoal.com's live commentary to the decisive CAF Champions League final between Esperance of Tunisia and Ahli of Egypt. Ahli manager Hossam Al-Badri surprisingly leaves out midfield talisman Mohamed Abou-Treika on the bench as Al-Sayed Hamdi starts upfront alongside Geddo. On the other hand, Esperance are boosted by the return of star man Youssef Msakni, who seemed to have recovered after an appendicitis operation. ESPERANCE: Ben Cherifia – Chemmam, Ben Mansour, Hichri, Zouaghi – Ragued, Mouelhi, Aouadhi, Bouazzi, Y. Msakni – N'Djeng AHLI: Ekrami – Fathi, Gomaa, Naguib, Shedid – Ashour, Ghaly, Al-Saied, Soliman – Geddo, Hamdi First half 1' The first half kicks off..let's hope for an enthralling game between the two African heavyweights 1' Foul for the hosts in midfield 2' Throw in for Ahli 3' Cagey start for both teams as the ball is restricted mainly to midfield 4' Shedid and Soliman combine down the left but lose the ball 4' We must remember a clean sheet would send Esperance through..the Cairo giants must score tonight 6' Geddo pleads for a foul inside the box as he struggles for the ball with a defender..the referee says no 8' foul for Ahli..the visitors now seem determined to pose threat from early on 9' Ben Cherifia does great to deny a dangerous Ahmed Shedid cross before thwarting a long range strike 10' Soliman makes a darting run before sending a through ball to Hamdi who is ruled to be in offside position 11' Ben Cherifia put in a superb display in the away game to keep his side's advantage intact 12' A fine team move ends up with an offiside against the hosts 13' Ahli pounce on a mis-pass by Esperance in midfield but eventually give away the ball 14' foul for Soliman in his own half 15' Another foul but this time for Ghaly in the opponents' half 16' Al-Saeid takes the free kick..blocked by the keeper
