Egypt President El-Sisi praises Pyramids for showcasing Egyptian sporting spirit
Published: Tuesday, 03 June 2025 Egypt President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has congratulated Pyramids FC after their historic victory in the TotalEnergies CAF Champions League, describing the achievement as a 'proud moment for Egyptian sport'. Pyramids FC defeated South Africa's Mamelodi Sundowns 2-1 in the second leg of the final on Sunday in Cairo, securing a 3-2 aggregate win and clinching their first-ever CAF Champions League title. Writing on his official Facebook page, President El-Sisi said: 'I extend my sincere congratulations to the Pyramids FC team and Egyptian sports fans on this historic achievement of winning the CAF Champions League for the first time in its history.' 'This victory embodies the spirit of determination and perseverance that has always characterized Egyptian sports,' he added. 'It confirms our clubs' ability to compete strongly on the continental and international levels. I wish Egyptian football continued success in all arenas.' With the victory, Pyramids FC became the fourth Egyptian team to win Africa's premier club competition, joining the ranks of Ismaily, Zamalek, and record champions Al Ahly. They also became only the fifth Egyptian club overall to win a continental title, alongside Arab Contractors SC. The win also boosts Egypt's dominance in the CAF Champions League, bringing the country's title tally to 19 — the highest in Africa. In a high-stakes final played at the 30 June Air Defence Stadium, Congolese forward Fiston Mayele opened the scoring before Ahmed Samy added a second for the home side. Despite a reply from Sundowns' Iqraam Rayners, Pyramids held on to secure the trophy in front of a passionate Cairo crowd. As a result of their triumph, Pyramids FC will face Morocco's Renaissance Berkane in the 2025 CAF Super Cup. They will also represent Africa in the inaugural 2025 Intercontinental Cup, where they are set to face either Saudi Arabia's Al-Ahly Jeddah or New Zealand's Auckland City. Additionally, the club has earned a place in the expanded 2029 FIFA Club World Cup, becoming the first African team to book its ticket and only the second Egyptian club to qualify, after Al Ahly. The president's message of support underscores the national pride in Pyramids' achievement, as the club's rise marks a new chapter in Egyptian football's growing stature on the global stage.

Jurcic hails Egyptian fans after historic TotalEnergies CAF Champions League triumph
Published: Tuesday, 03 June 2025 Pyramids FC head coach Krunoslav Jurčić has expressed heartfelt gratitude to Egyptian fans after guiding the club to their first-ever TotalEnergies CAF Champions League title. The Egyptian side sealed a 2-1 victory over South Africa's Mamelodi Sundowns in Cairo on Sunday night, clinching the final 3-2 on aggregate and completing a remarkable journey under the Croatian tactician. 'I don't know what to say,' Jurcic said who looked stunned after the final whistle following the heroics of his team. 'We succeeded in winning the CAF Champions League, and we deserved it. I consider winning the title a reward for the work we put in throughout the season.' The 54-year-old coach, who previously led clubs in Croatia and the Gulf, became the first Croatian to lift Africa's most prestigious club trophy. Pyramids' triumph makes them the fourth Egyptian club to win the competition after Al Ahly, Zamalek, and Ismaily — and the fifth Egyptian side overall to win a continental title following Arab Contractors in the CAF Cup Winners' Cup. In a tightly contested match at the 30 June Air Defence Stadium, Congolese striker Fiston Mayele scored the opener before Ahmed Samy doubled the lead for the hosts. Despite a second-half strike from Sundowns' Iqraam Rayners, Pyramids held firm to lift the new-look silver and gold CAF Champions League trophy. Jurčić singled out the Egyptian supporters for their role in the final. 'I thank the Egyptian fans for supporting Pyramids in the CAF Champions League final. "The fans flocked here to cheer us on. I asked them to do so, and I thank them for fulfilling my request,' he said. He added: 'The Egyptian fans gave us special energy and helped Pyramids beat Sundowns. We were all together.' The victory ensures Pyramids a place in multiple prestigious competitions: they will face Moroccan side RS Berkane in the 2025 CAF Super Cup, compete in the 2025 Intercontinental Cup against the winner of Auckland City and Al-Ahly Jeddah, and represent Africa at the 2029 FIFA Club World Cup. The Cairo-based side's dramatic rise under Jurčić marks a new era in Egyptian football, as Pyramids join the elite of African club football — both on the pitch and on the international stage.
