"Minister of defense Mohamed Hussein Tantawi has agreed to let us play the final at Cairo Stadium," Ahli's spokesman Gamal Gabr told FilGoal.com.

The Red Devils bosses took the approval of the Minister of Defense as they are in charge of organizing the Pan Arab Games opener on November 11th.

The Military Academy Stadium has been announced as the venue of the game but Ahli never lost hope and were persistent to play such a crucial game at the 74,000-seated stadium.

Ahli held the Tunisian side to a goalless draw last Saturday in Sousse and need a victory to win the Cup for an unprecedented third straight time.
