🔥 Egyptian football fans are eagerly awaiting the semi-final clash between Al Ahly and Ceramica Cleopatra, set to take place this Thursday evening at Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi, as part of the Egyptian Super Cup.

The Egyptian Football Association’s Referees Committee has appointed Mahmoud El Banna to officiate the match, assisted by Ahmed Hossam Taha and Hani Khairy, with Badr Bou Jomhour as fourth official. The VAR team will be led by Mahmoud Ashour with Khaled Hussein as assistant. ⚽

El Banna has become one of the referees most frequently assigned to Al Ahly’s matches, having officiated 51 games, during which Al Ahly achieved 38 wins, 9 draws, and only 4 defeats — an impressive record for the Red Giants. 👏

The last time El Banna refereed an Al Ahly match was against Pyramids in last season’s league, which ended in a 2-2 draw after a heated contest.

🟥 The Referees Committee also announced the full list of officials for the Super Cup, including Mohamed Maarouf, Mahmoud El Banna, Ahmed Hossam Taha, Samy Helhal, Tarek Mostafa, Hany Khairy, Sherif Abdallah, Khaled Hussein, Mahmoud Ashour, and Hossam Azab.

Fans are eagerly watching to see how El Banna will manage tonight’s clash, as Al Ahly looks to secure a place in the Super Cup final and continue its championship journey. 🔴🏆
