Zamalek host Rwanda Army seeking a place in the Champions League group stage

Zamalek host Rwanda Army in Cairo on Saturday in the second leg of their African Champions League round-of-32 tie.

Zamalek won the first match 1-0 away from home, with Nasser Mansi scoring late.

A win or draw would send Zamalek through to the group stage, while a one-goal Rwanda Army win would force a penalty shootout.

Rwanda Army need to win by at least two goals to qualify directly.

Former Zamalek player Ayman Younes urged the team to play with strength and focus.

Seven Zamalek players are unavailable for different reasons, including injuries and suspension, adding to the challenge as the team tries to protect its lead.
