Ahli Club will clash with Hilal Club in the semifinals of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup of Champions after defeating Al-Faisaly 3-0 at Prince Salman bin Abdul Aziz Stadium in Al-Majma'a. Many sport experts had predicted the game to go in favor of Ahli especially after Ahli's huge win in the first leg – 5-1. However, the result brought the aggregate of both matches to 8-1. After a scoreless first half, Ahli's rising star Yaser Al-Fahmai drew the first blood in the 65th minute after recieving a nice pass in front of the goalkeeper. Al-Fahmi suffered from a serious knee injury from a tough tackle by Al-Faisaly defender Ahmad Dalah who saw the red. Most likely Al-Fahmi will not play for the rest of the season. Ahli's second goal came from a penalty kick in the 88th minute. Ahli's goalkeeper Abdullah Al-Mayof shot the ball into the back of the net. Ahli striker Hasan Al-Raheb completed the tally for the day in the jury time. Messi, Drogba, Eto'o to play in Burkina Faso Barcelona forward Lionel Messi will head a team of international stars in a charity match against Burkina Faso's national team in June, a government spokesman said. Sylvain Vebamba said Messi, Chelsea striker Didier Drogba, Cameroon's Samuel Eto'o and Manchester City and Ivory Coast midfielder Yaya Toure will appear in the game in Ouagadougou on June 16. The match was organized by the wife of Burkina Faso's speaker of parliament after she traveled to this year's African Cup of Nations to meet with leading African players. Messi, whose Barcelona team was beaten by Drogba's Chelsea in the Champions League semifinals, will have the European summer off after Argentina didn't qualify for the Olympic football tournament. However, the charity game could leave him playing in four continents over four weeks. __
