In front of more than 56,000 fans in Jeddah, Al-Ahly reached the semi-finals of the Club World Cup, with Swiss Marcel Kohler on the bench. The Egyptian champion and CAF Champions League champion defeated its guest, Al-Ittihad, 3-1. The North African team also benefited from veteran star Karim Benzema missing a penalty kick in the first half.
In Al-Ahly, Mahmoud Kahraba, among others, a former Premier League player, was able to distinguish himself. The striker, who played for Lucerne and GC between 2013 and 2014, prepared two of the three goals. In the semi-finals, the Egyptians will face the Brazilian club Fluminense.

Urawa Red Diamonds (Japan) also secured a ticket to the semi-finals. A former Premier League player also stood out there. Dutchman Alex Schalke, who has been with Servette until 2022 and previously for four years, scored the only goal of the match in the 78th minute. In the semi-finals, the Diamonds will challenge first-place favorite Manchester City.
