The TotalEnergies CAF Champions League second leg Final between Al Ahly and Espérance Sportive de Tunis, set to take place in Cairo, Egypt on Saturday, 25 May 2024, sold out in just two hours. This rapid sell-out highlights the immense interest in African club football, promising a thrilling finale between two of the continent’s most prominent teams.
Kickoff is scheduled for 20:00 local time in Cairo (17:00 GMT). The high demand for tickets has prompted the Confederation of African Football (CAF) and host club Al Ahly to intensify safety and security measures around Cairo International Stadium.
The match will be broadcast to over 90 countries worldwide, spanning Sub-Saharan Africa, MENA, Europe, America, and the South Pacific. Fans globally will be able to follow the final in their preferred languages across various CAF platforms. Leading the global broadcast will be CAF’s traditional partners, including beIN Sport, Canal+, and New World TV. In Africa, free-to-air broadcasters such as SABC, Azam Media, and AfroSport will air the final.
Al Ahly, with an unbeaten streak of 19 matches in the TotalEnergies CAF Champions League (W12 D7), have kept 16 clean sheets and conceded only three goals. Espérance Sportive de Tunis are unbeaten in their last five knockout matches without conceding (W2 D3) and seek their first title since 2019.
This final could see Al Ahly securing the 11th victory for Egyptian clubs in the competition, while a win for Espérance would mark Tunisia’s fifth title, making it the second-most successful nation in the tournament’s history.
