Fans Demand Taher Taher Suspension After Cairo Clash Between Al Ahly and AS FAR Rabat

Fans Call for Taher Taher Suspension
In a statement from the “Capital Fans” association backing AS FAR Rabat, they called for the suspension of Al Ahly’s Taher Mohamed Taher.
Last Sunday’s Cairo group-stage clash at Cairo International Stadium ended with troubling incidents.
Al Ahly supporters threw water bottles at AS FAR Rabat players to protest the events in Morocco.
The association also noted on Facebook the need to open an investigation and apply disciplinary measures against Al Ahly for the bottle-throwing, which injured a player named Hamoudan.
The statement urged the preparation of a comprehensive dossier supported by audiovisual evidence to be presented to the Court of Arbitration for Sport when necessary.
Additionally, it highlighted the ongoing duty to monitor media reports carefully and counter any distortions that aim to cover up what happened during the match.
The article also points to a separate Egyptian Premier League fixture featuring Al Ahly and El Gouna as a reminder of the competitive context.
Punchlines:
“If fans were as precise with their criticisms as with their aim, the bottles would be coming from the stand, not from the chemistry set.”
“In football as in life: when in doubt, blame the weather — or at least the referee’s call.”
