For the Madrid, To the-Ahly will not be an at all simple rival. The group directed by the Swiss Marcel Koller posed an intelligent party in front of the North American, betting to the physical wear and the occupation of spaces to reduce the options of the rival. The crash was very closed from beginning to end, with hardly three finish to door between both clubs. Only a so much of the Egyptian Mohamed Magdy to two minutes of the end avoided the extention.

The rigid 4-1-4-1 of the Egyptians neutralised to a Seattle Sounders favourite on the paper that finishes leaving home with the empty hands after his historical consecration in the 'ConcaChampions'.
