The football club Al Ahli has won the annual African Super Cup for a record fourth time after beating CS Sfaxien of Tunisia 2-1.

The Egyptian team's goals came from the head of Angolan international Flavio, who also helped Al Ahli to last year's African Champions League title.

He nodded the opening goal two minutes into the second half before Sfaxien, who won the African Confederation Cup for a second successive year last November, equalised through Ivorian Blaise Kouassi.

Flavio grabbed the winner in the 70th minute by converting a cross from compatriot Gilberto.
