Football fever is back, and this time, it’s pure Egyptian pride on full display! The NBE Super Cup 2025 brings together four powerhouse teams in a high-energy knockout competition that promises drama, passion, and goals you’ll still be talking about weeks later.
What Is the NBE Super Cup?
The NBE Super Cup is one of Egypt’s most exciting football tournaments, a high-stakes event that brings together the nation’s top clubs for a knockout showdown. It’s not just about lifting the trophy; it’s about pride, legacy, and bragging rights.
The vibe? Think electric stadium lights, chanting crowds, the scent of rivalry, especially when Egypt’s biggest clubs go head-to-head away from home turf. Add to that a fresh format, unfamiliar playing grounds, and visiting supporters bringing the heat. It’s not just a game, it’s a cultural phenomenon where every whistle, every roar, every goal resonates far beyond the pitch.
Last year, Al Ahly SC took the crown after a nail-biting final against rivals Zamalek SC, drawing 0-0 before sealing victory with a dramatic 7-6 win on penalties at Mohammed bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. That win marked Al Ahly’s 15th Super Cup title, cementing their dominance in Egyptian football history.
