CAF Super Cup 2020 to be hosted once more in Doha!

CAF President Ahmad Ahmad and Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa bin Ahmed Al Thani, President of the Qatar Football Association (QFA), signed an agreement on Sunday, December 22 that will see the CAF Super Cup take place on February 14, 2020 in Doha, Qatar’s capital.

The Super Cup match to be played on February 14 will see Esperance Sportive de Tunis (Tunisia), winners of the 2018-19 CAF Champions League take on Zamalek (Egypt), winners of the 2018-19 CAF Confederation Cup.

Next year’s competition marks the second time in a row that Doha hosts the CAF Super Cup within the framework of cooperation agreement between CAF and the QFA.

Moroccan side Raja Club Athletic were crowned champions of the Total CAF Super Cup 2019 for the second time in their history, defeating Esperance of Tunisia 2-1 last March at the Thani Bin Jassim Stadium in Doha, a game watched by more than 18,000 spectators.

It was the first time the one-off match was played outside the African continent.
