Caf Champions League: Zamalek down Raja Casablanca to set up Ahly final

SC Zamalek defeated Raja Casablanca 3-1 on the night and 4-1 on aggregate to win the second leg of their Caf Champions League semi-final to set up a mouth-watering final with Al-Ahly.

The match was rescheduled to Wednesday evening due to a coronavirus outbreak in the Raja ranks, with Ahly’s passage to the final already being confirmed when they ousted Wydad Casablanca on October 23.

Achraf Bencharki’s header in the first leg had given the White Knight a one-goal advantage heading into the second showing between these two heavyweights, although Raja drew level early in the second half when Ben Malango fired them ahead from distance.
