Sounders know they’ll have hands full with Al Ahly

In the world of North American soccer, the Seattle Sounders are about as decorated as anyone. Only two MLS teams have more than their eight trophies, and if you add in their four A-League and USL championships, their 12 titles are tied for the most among United States-based professional teams.

Yet their resume looks rather slim in comparison to their opponent in the Club World Cup quarterfinals on Saturday.

No top-flight professional club in the world has won more trophies than Al Ahly. The Egyptian Premier League team has won its domestic title 42 times, the Egypt Cup 37 times and the Egyptian Super Cup 12 times.
