CAIRO – 12 January 2018: The organizing committee of the Egyptian Super Cup game between Al-Ahly and El-Masry decided to delay the game as the Emirati classico between Al-Ain and Al-Wasl also takes place at the same time.


The game was scheduled at 6 p.m. (Cairo Local Time) but it will be played at 7:45 p.m. instead at Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium in Al-Ain, UAE.


Al-Ahly qualified for the Super Cup after winning the Egyptian League and Egypt Cup last season, while Al-Masry qualified after being the Egypt Cup runner-up.


Al-Ain and Al-Wasl are sharing the top of the Arabian Gulf League with 25 points each.


The UAE Football Federation announced on Wednesday that Emirati referee Ammar El Gonaibi will referee the Egyptian Super Cup game between Al-Ahly and Al-Masry on Friday. Ahmed El Rashdu and Gassem Abdallah will be the assistant referees in the game.
