CAF cup match called off after clubs get shirty over Moroccan map
April 22 – In a major regional dispute, an African Confederation Cup match between USM Alger and Morocco’s Renaissance Berkane was cancelled just moments before kickoff on Sunday because of a row over the Moroccan club’s shirts.
The saga began two days previously when the Moroccan squad arrived in Algeria ahead of the first leg of the semi-final.
Algerian media outlets reported that customs officers confiscated Berkane’s shirts, citing the presence of a map of Morocco that included the disputed Western Sahara region.
