Zamalek of Egypt has sent a strong warning to Nigeria's representative, Enyimba International, ahead of their CAF Confederation Cup Day 2 clash this weekend. The Egyptian side showcased their attacking prowess with a commanding 4-0 league win over Ghazl El-Mahalla on Monday at Mahalla.
The White Knights capitalized on an early advantage after Mahalla fullback Yehya Zakareya was sent off in the first minute for a dangerous tackle on Zamalek winger Ahmed Abdel-Rehim. From then on, Zamalek dominated the game, proving their status as a top contender in African football.
Enyimba International will host the defending champions this weekend at the Goodswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo. The People's Elephant faces immense pressure to secure a victory after losing 2-0 to Al Masry in their opening game of the group stage.
The People's Elephants must win to revive their CAF Confederation Cup campaign and stay in contention for a knockout-stage spot. A second defeat would severely hinder their chances of progressing in the tournament.
Zamalek, on the other hand, will arrive in Uyo with confidence, having already defeated Mozambique's Black Bulls 2-0 in their first game. Their recent form indicates a tough challenge ahead for Enyimba in what promises to be a thrilling encounter.
