The Egyptian Football Association (EFA) has set Saturday December 30th, 2006 as a date for the Cairo derby between Ahli and Zamalek. The match was scheduled for December 8th, but was postponed due to Ahli's participation in the 2006 FIFA Club World Cup in Japan from December 10th to 17th. The competitions committee in the EFA made the announcement in a press conference on Monday. The committee also revealed the dates of Ahli and Zamalek's postponed local league games and the remaining schedule. Title holders Ahli will be hit with a busy schedule once they return from Japan. The African champions will take on Harras Al-Hodoud and ENPPI on December 22nd and 26th respectively before facing arch-rivals Zamalek, who also play on the 26th against Al-Hodoud. Ahli conclude their postponed games by facing Ismaili on January 7th.
