CAIRO: Al Ahly fans are encountering problems in acquiring tickets ahead of the CAF Champions League second-leg final against Etoile Sahel on Friday.

Preparations for the upcoming Pan-Arab Games forced the African champions to publish 48,000 tickets instead of 67,000, which is the full capacity of Cairo stadium.

Moreover, the Al Ahly board decided to divide the tickets on three days rather than selling all at once.

Consequently, the Reds fans are facing a problem in getting their tickets ahead of the crunch final
