The Algerian club USM Algiers and its host RS Berkane of Morocco are preparing to play their confrontation tomorrow, Sunday, in the second leg of the semi-finals of the African Confederation Cup, after the events of the first leg canceled due to the “shirts” issue, while the Egyptian Zamalek seeks to achieve a positive result away from home against the Ghanaian Dreams following… They tied negatively in Cairo.
The Moroccan and Algerian teams left the events of last week to the judicial departments, as the African Union (CAF) yesterday, Friday, rejected the appeal of the USMA Capital Club related to the decision of the CAF Competitions Committee to consider it a 0-3 loser in the first leg after the “shirt crisis.”
The Algerian team received a warm welcome at the airport in the Moroccan city of Oujda, then headed by bus to the city of Berkane, which will host the match in its municipal stadium.
The Orange team – led by Tunisian coach Moin Chaabani – is seeking its third continental title after 2020 and 2022, and the team hopes to take advantage of the ground staff and the audience to achieve a positive result.
The “Brakna” team will be missing the services of 4 players for various reasons, as injury will rule out Senegalese striker Lamine Kamara, Oussama El Melioui and Abdel Karim Baadi, while midfielder Omar Arjoun will be absent due to suspension.
The Algerian Federation, which aspires to maintain the title, is aware of the difficulty of the confrontation, as Spanish coach Juan Carlos Garrido complained about the intensity of the matches.
The team is counting on its Malian striker, Abdullah Kanu, who scored two goals to qualify for the semi-finals against Nigeria’s Rivers United. The team also includes names such as Nabil Amara, Khaled Bousilo, and Cameroonian Lionel Atiba.

The Portuguese coach of the Egyptian team, Jose Gomez, hopes that his attackers will get rid of the scoring barrenness that plagued them in the previous match, where they wasted many chances, especially in the second half.
