Ismaily vs. Heartland FC (Nigeria) / Pre-match Discussions

Ismaily, trailing the group with zero points face off Heartland (1 point) in a life or death encounter that may well decide the fate of the Egyptian Darawish (Derviches) as they are known in Egypt - for their Brasilian-flavoured style of play. Ismaily go into the match facing probable penalties for their non-sportive antics after their last encounter with Ahly in the same competition in Cairo stadium.
