This secured their second title after 2019 when they also defeated RS Berkane, thus denying the latter their third title after 2020 and 2022.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, Zamalek became the first Egyptian team to win the CAF Confederation Cup twice in its history.\r\n\r\nThe team's Portuguese coach, Jos\u00e9 Gomes, said his team deserved the victory and the title, adding, \"There is no secret to success; we work as a family, share decisions, and build for the greater good.\"\r\nHe noted that the match was not easy, \"The difference between the first and second legs was the way we started the confrontation. I congratulate RS Berkane, who were a tough opponent, but Zamalek players deserve the title, and I thank the club's fans\u2014they are the champions.\"\r\n\r\nRS Berkane's Tunisian coach, Mouine Chaabani, congratulated his team for reaching the final, saying, \"We played a match worthy of RS Berkane's name, but the match was not open. We were late in getting into the game properly and could not move the ball as needed.\"\r\n\r\nHe added, \"I believe there was a penalty for our team that the referee did not award. The incident should have been reviewed by VAR so my team does not suffer an injustice. I do not know why the penalty was not awarded.\"\r\n","continue_text":"Continue Reading","main_heading":"Blog"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Zamalek is champion of the African Confederation Cup for the second time -
