Speaking after the victory over the Sounders, Magdy expressed how the record African champions were determined to win.
"We achieved the victory after a great effort from the entire team, less than 48 hours after the Auckland game, and the fatigue that accompanied it," the 26-year-old said, as per KingFut.
"I am happy with the goal, but I am happier with the qualification for the semi-finals. I only care about Al Ahly's interest.

"Winning the Man of the Match award of course makes me happy. I also won the award in the 2020 and 2021 Champions League finals, but the important thing is that these games ended with Al Ahly winning.
"Real Madrid is the best team in the world. It is my childhood team, but we will give everything we have and we will play to win."
