Percy Tau of South Africa missed four consecutive matches for coach Marcel Kohler’s side, after being excluded from the team that played international friendlies against Andorra and Algeria last month. Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos cited mental exhaustion as the reason for his exclusion. Al Ahly finds themselves in 10th position on the Egyptian Premier League log standings, having played four games less than first-placed Pyramids.
The team faces a crucial period in the next few weeks, with a CAF Champions League semi-final clash against TP Mazembe coming up this weekend. It remains to be seen if talisman Tau can shake off his injury and return for the crucial clash. The TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations quarter final match between Cape Verde and South Africa took place at Stade Charles Konan Banny on February 3, 2024 in Yamoussoukro, Ivory Coast.
Since then, Percy Tau has been absent from the team’s matches. SNL24.com is Soccer Laduma’s new home and features an online stadium.
