For three years, former Super Eagles’ winger, Emmanuel Amuneke was worshipped in Egypt, while featuring for Zamalek FC, a club he led to beat Ghana’s Asante Kotoko in 1993 CAF Champions League, known then as the Champions Cup.

Amuneke, made 71 appearances for Zamalek, scoring 21 goals. He knows the Egyptian club very well, including their antics on and off the field of play.

On Sunday, one of Nigeria’s flag bearers in this year’s CAF Champions League, Rangers of Enugu, will take on the north African side in a second round, first leg encounter, and Amuneke says the Flying Antelopes have a mountain to climb at the Al Salam Stadium in Cairo.
