CAIRO, 28 February 2019: Ismaily SC squad left Cairo Wednesday en route to Algeria to play a match against CS Constantine at the CAF Champions League group stage.

The game will be played on Saturday.

Ismaily suffered a major blow after conceding a last-minute equaliser against CS Constantine last Saturday.

Ismaily was excluded from the competition following their fans’ riot during Ismaily's clash against Club African at the CAF Champions League.


Ismaily was reinstated to the CAF Champions League after a successful appeal against their expulsion.

The CAF Champions League draw put Ismaily in Group C alongside Congo’s TP Mazembe, Club Africain of Tunisia and Algeria’s CS Constantine.


Ismaily lost their first two games at the group; they lost the opening game 2-0 to Mazembe in Congo, and the CAF decided to grant the three points to Club Africain following Ismaily fans’ aggressive behaviors.
