Karim ZidanGUEST
And we're going to get into this later, but this is how I got into this world.
Karim ZidanGUEST
So my cousin and a lot of his friends were part of these ultras, the ultras Ahlawi supporting Egypt's Al-Ahli club.
Karim ZidanGUEST
And they told me, hey, you know, come join us for these games.
Karim ZidanGUEST
You're going to love this.

They were hung and they were hanged in front of their families.
Karim ZidanGUEST
And this caused massive tensions throughout Egypt and really led to the formation of what would become Egyptian nationalism.
Karim ZidanGUEST
Now, one year later, in 1907, was the exact year that Al-Ahli, which is my football club and the oldest in Egypt, was founded.
Chris LeeHOST
And that means the national, doesn't it? Just for context, that's kind of like more or less putting a national spin on the football team.
Karim ZidaneSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
My cousin and all those old members of the ultras, they don't attend games anymore.
Karim ZidaneSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
They still love Al-Ahli.
Karim ZidaneSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
They still watch Al-Ahli's games.
Karim ZidaneSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
But it's not the same.
Karim ZidaneSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I think a part of many of us who grew up in the revolution, us millennials who participated in the revolution, I think a part of us died with the failure of the revolution, with the death of the ultras.

He's always done that since his Mamelodi Sundowns days.

Even when he moves to Al Ahly, he always moves with the same people.
Tholakele MgangaCORRESPONDENT
So it seems like they can't meet each other there, which is very concerning because the aim is ... 'Cause even Hugo Broos when he left, he said the aim is to make sure this team are constantly playing AFCON, and within the next maybe six years are starting to win AFCON.
Tholakele MgangaCORRESPONDENT
But if you don't have a coach that can build some sort of momentum- What are we going to do after that? But those are the MTN8 games.

Abdelkarim, their young, um, Egyptian prodigy, who's only 18, who, who scored again on, on Wednesday night in the friendly against Al-Ahly.

He's a really potential good player, but he's still so young.
