Al Ahly Bank cruise to 3-0 friendly win over Dibba Al Fujairah in pre-season boost

Al Ahly Bank continued their impressive pre-season form with a comprehensive 3-0 victory over UAE side Dibba Al Fujairah in a friendly as preparations intensify for the new campaign.

The Egyptian club struck three times without reply, with Ahmed Amin Oufa, Yaw Annor and Sayed Neymar all getting on the scoresheet to underline the team’s attacking sharpness at this stage of pre-season.

The match was part of a structured build-up programme designed by head coach Ayman El Ramadi, who is overseeing the squad’s preparations ahead of the forthcoming season. The victory adds to a run of positive results that Al Ahly Bank have put together during their training period.

El Ramadi’s side are using a series of friendlies to fine-tune their fitness and tactical cohesion, and the convincing win over Dibba Al Fujairah will be seen as further evidence that the plan is taking shape as intended.

Next test against Tala’ea El Gaish

Al Ahly Bank are scheduled to play another friendly on Monday, when they face Tala’ea El Gaish as part of the same pre-season schedule.

That match will offer El Ramadi another opportunity to assess his players, rotate his options and move the squad closer to full readiness before competitive fixtures get under way. The club are aiming to carry their current momentum into the start of the season.

The coaching staff are expected to continue using these games to work on both defensive organisation and attacking patterns, with the latest clean sheet alongside the three goals scored likely to be viewed as an encouraging balance.

Building on last season

Last season, Al Ahly Bank finished third in the relegation-avoidance group of the league, collecting 48 points.

That campaign underlined both the team’s potential and the areas in need of improvement, and the current pre-season programme has been shaped with those lessons in mind.

While friendly results do not carry competitive significance, the nature of the win over Dibba Al Fujairah and the spread of scorers will provide confidence within the squad as they look to improve on last term’s league performance once the new season begins.
