CAF delays Zamalek return leg with South Africa's Orlando
Egypt's instability has nothing to do with the rescheduling of the return leg match
Ahmed Abd El Rasoul Published in Ahram Online on 13 - 08 - 2013

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) delays the return leg between Zamalek and South Africa's Orlando Pirates by 48 hours.
The South African team will host Zamalek on Saturday in the third round of the CAF Champions League Group stage, while the Whites were supposed to host the return leg on 30 August in Cairo.
"CAF informed us that the fourth round match date was officially moved to 1 September," Zamalek reveals on its official website on Tuesday.
"The date change is only related to CAF and not to Egypt's current instability," the Cairo giants added.
Under the guidance of Coach Helmi Tulan, success-starved Zamalek are chasing their first continental title since 2002.
Orlando Pirates top Group A with four points, ahead of second-placed AC Leopards from Congo.
Cairo rivals Ahly and Zamalek have one point each after playing out a 1-1 draw in their opening group-stage game.
