Dec 28 (Reuters) - Holders Al Ahly will play South African side Mamelodi Sundowns and Sudan's Al Hilal and Al Merrikh in Group A of the African Champions League following the draw on Tuesday. Egyptian side Ahly, led by former Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane, have won the title for the last two years and knocked the South African champions out in the quarter-finals in 2020-21. They beat another South African side, Kaizer Chiefs, 3-0 in the final last season to earn Mosimane his third title after he also won the competition with Sundowns in 2016. African Confederation Cup holders Raja Casablanca head Group B and take on Horoya of Guinea, ES Setif from Algeria and South African debutants AmaZulu. The latter are coached by former Blackburn Rovers striker Benni McCarthy, who won the UEFA Champions League as a player with Porto.
