Ahli could be facing a possible sanction by CAF after the shameful incidents which followed Friday's 3-1 Champions League final defeat to Etoile Sahel at Cairo Stadium, BBC Sport reported.

A section of the first class fans of the home side launched an assault on Etoile players, who received a flood of bottles and missiles on their way to receive their medals.

CAF communications director Suleiman Habuba told BBC that the African football governing body will take action upon the outcome of the reports filed by match commissioner and match co-ordinator.

Etoile captain Saber ben Frej clearly appeared on video to be pulled from his shirt and brought to the ground by one of the angry fans.

Moreover, Ahli coach Manuel Jose was also a victim of the fans' rage after the disappointing home defeat for the holders.
