Al-Ahly Faces Auckland City Next Wednesday
The city of Jeddah is preparing to host the match between Al-Ahli Saudi and Auckland City FC from New Zealand in the first round of the 2026 Club World Cup, at King Abdullah Sports City Stadium. Al-Ahli, led by coach Marino Pušić, who took over after the departure of Matieš Jaisele, hopes to start its continental campaign strongly following previous local victories. The team relies on its attack, commanded by Ivan Toney and Galo, to achieve this aim. Meanwhile, Auckland City, under Portuguese coach Pedro Moura, aims to pull off a surprise against the Asian champions, relying on offensive players such as Sam Kosgrove and Liam Gielion, along with goalkeeper Oscar Mason. The match is significant for Al-Ahli as they seek a successful start in the tournament, while Auckland City is eager to prove its capacity to compete with the Asian champions and to achieve positive results in its first global participation.
