The African Game of the Century | Al Ahly - Zamalek | The Cairo Derby

The Cairo Derby is one of the most important fixtures in world football. Al Ahly and Zamalek have incredible traditions, and have won an incredible amount of silverware, both on the domestic and continental level. Amongst Africa’s biggest clubs, 2020 saw them face off in the CAF Champions League final.
In the 2011 Arab spring, saw the Ultras groups of both these clubs, Ahlawy and Ultras White Knights had a pivotal role. Since, the massacres of Port Said and Enppi has led to Egyptian football being played without fans for nearly a decade. In 2020, with the world locked down because of Covid-19, these two giants faced off in what many consider the biggest match in African history.

The background research has been nothing but great . Learning about all the history of the all the clubs and what makes each Darby so unique has been just amazing. Thank you so much for doing this. I know that American Soccer is not on the same level as most . But Id sure love to see you do one on The Seattle Sounders v. Portland Timbers Darby also known as the "Cascadia Cup" or The "California Clasico" San Jose Earthquakes V. LA Galaxy Come to the States please. Cheers!

I think you should have said more about the Port Said massacre. In the video it comes across like a fight between fans that turned out really bad. But in reality it was much more like retaliation from the police and supporters of the Egyptian dictator Mubarak who had to step down due to the protests lead by the Ultras. The police let al-Masry fans enter the stadium with knives, stones and other weapons and did not intervene when they stormed the away end and in addition to that the escape doors where locked and suddenly the stadium lights turned off! Its also believed that there were paid thugs among the murderers. If you're German I can recommend this documentary: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKvblZuHbqx_i8k Just wanted to make this clear for others in the comments who may be wondering how something like that could happen but I still think its a great video. I love your channel keep going :)

[@shafy5335]

Well said brother Portsaid massacre is a just an interface for a very huge plan by the Military Council led by field marshal Hussein Tantawi just made for a very strong men that they couldnt face in a normal conditions They just gave all they would give to beat those men, and we all know that the 74 brothers all died in the way they deserved and we all would be proud for them, they died stands, JUST LIKE A MEN ULTRAS AHLAWY men maybe they rest in heaven and watching us, whatever happend and even after 200 years we will NEVER FORGET we will NEVER FORGIVE

Well the info given wasn’t true Since the new version of the egyptian legue has been there for almost 80 years And for your info el ahly el famous for scandals and paining referrers etc… not to mention the dominance of their old retired players on most of the authorized positions in the egyptian football association, that sums up the domestic advantage part.

In South Africa the biggest rivals Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates who play the Soweto sit together in the stadium...probably the biggest derby where rival fans sit together. Two fan disasters in 1993 and 2001 probably led to this and now we just fight on social media.
