The Egyptian Football Association (EFA) have delayed Ahli's clash against Ismaili for an indefinite period due to the former's African commitments. The EFA also confirmed on their official website that the Ghazl Mahalla vs. Harras Al-Hodoud encounter will similarly be re-scheduled due to the latter's participation in the CAF Confederation Cup. The Ahli – Ismaili game was originally scheduled for September 29th, just few days before Ahli's long journey to face Nigeria's Enyimba in the CAF Champions League semi final. Hodoud will also meet Club Africain on October 5th in Group A of the Confederation Cup. The EFA stressed that the decision was taken as a sign of support to all Egyptian teams competing in African and foreign events.
