Defense stalwart Wael Gomaa regains his place in the backline after being replaced by Saad Samir in the 2-0 quarter-final loss to Guangzhou Evergrande.

Meteb equalizes!!! 8' The Egypt hitman receives a superb long ball from Shedid to control it inside the area before striking between the keeper's legs Ahli's leveller from tight angle 11' Trezeguet brilliantly dashes into Monterrey's own half before hitting a long range shot that was gathered by the keeper 12' There are doubts that Meteb's goal was scored while the striker was in an offside position 18' Ekrami rushes out in time to deny a clear-on-goal Cardozo 20' Meza blasts high after a spell of dominance for the Mexicans 22' Goal! Monterrey now two! 22' Delgado latches onto an incisive through pass inside the box to beat Ahli's backline and stab past the hapless Ekrami 22' Ahli's defensive midfield and rearguard shoulder full responsibility for the goal! how could they be caught napping that way!! 26' Another goal! Monterrey are now three! with an awful piece of goalkeeping by Ekrami this time 26' Lopez hits a magnificent volley that was shockingly spilled by Ekrami as the ball rolled into the net!
