Pre-season games
[edit]Al-Ahly announced that the six fixtures of their 2009 pre-season would be in Germany and England.[1] On July 3, 2009, Al-Ahly played their first pre-season match in Gelsenkirchen, Germany against FC Gelsenkirchen.[2] Later that day, Al-Ahly also played their first match of the Zayton Cup against the Turkish team Galatasaray, and 3 days later they played the German Bayer 04 Leverkusen. The last match was on July 11 against the Moroccan team Wydad Casablanca.[3] After their match against Haras El Hodood in the Egyptian Super Cup, Al-Ahly's 23 players went to London to play in the Wembley Cup against Celtic and Barcelona on 24th and 26 July.

Egyptian Premier League
[edit]Al-Ahly's opening game of the Egyptian Premier League 2009–10 was on August 6 against Ghazl El-Mehalla. Al-Ahly's coach Hossam El-Badry, who took over the club following the departure of Portuguese Manuel José at the end of the previous season, employed an unusual 4-4-2 formation. Despite the bad opening of the season in the super cup defeat against Haras El Hodood Al-Ahly beat Ghazl El-Mehalla 2–0. Ahmed Hassan made the opening score after 40 minutes and Francis Doe brought the score up to two 66 minutes into his Egyptian Premier League debut.[7] The next game was a narrow 2–1 win over Ittihad El-Shorta in an unbroadcast game on 19 August. Former Ahly player Ahmed Galal scored the first goal of the game after 31 minutes, but 4 minutes later Ahly's player Ahmed Hassan scored equalizing the score. In the second-half substitute Hussein Yasser scored Al-Ahly's second goal in the 80th minute to secure Ahly's second win of the season.[8]
On 23 August, Al-Ahly played their third match of the season against Haras El Hodood in a 1–1 draw, Haras El Hodood player Ahmed Salama scored the opener 69 minutes in and Ahmed Hassan scored the equalizer nine minutes later.[9]
