Dr. Tony Aubynn, a board member of Medeama SC, has officially announced that Al Ahly, the Egyptian football giants, will be arriving in Kumasi on Thursday, ready to face Medeama in the CAF Champions League on Friday. This news comes after some initial concerns regarding the team’s travel to Ghana.
The journey for Al Ahly was initially disrupted when their plane encountered a technical issue during refueling at Kotoka International Airport in Accra. This led to a request for a postponement of their match against Medeama. However, Dr. Aubynn assured that all arrangements have now been made to ensure Al Ahly’s prompt arrival in Kumasi for the game.
Despite the unexpected events, Dr. Aubynn emphasized that the players are safe and well-accommodated in Accra, and the flight from Accra to Kumasi is only 40 minutes. This negates the need for a match postponement and ensures that the much-anticipated encounter between the two teams will go ahead as scheduled.
Al Ahly is currently leading the table with six points after match day four, while Medeama is at the bottom of the group with four points. As both teams look to secure their place in the next round, this clash is sure to be an exciting one for fans and supporters.
