Morocco's Historic Achievement in African Football
On March 22, 2026, the Moroccan football scene witnessed a significant milestone as the country ensured its presence in the final of the African Champions League. This achievement comes after the remarkable performances of two clubs: Royal Army and Renaissance Berkane, both of which have progressed to the semifinals of the prestigious tournament. The upcoming semifinal clash, which is set to take place in the capital city, Rabat, will see Royal Army host Renaissance Berkane for the first leg on April 10, 11, or 12, 2026, with the return leg scheduled for April 17, 18, or 19 of the same month.
The Royal Army made headlines by eliminating the defending champions, Pyramids FC from Egypt, with a score of 2-1 in Cairo. Meanwhile, Renaissance Berkane secured their spot in the semifinals by defeating Sudan's Al-Hilal with a narrow 1-0 victory in Kigali. This remarkable feat not only highlights the prowess of Moroccan clubs but also serves as a powerful rebuttal to skeptics, reaffirming that Moroccan football is capable of achieving great things through both hard work and adherence to the rules of the game.
