Football Jersey Dispute Leads to Cancellation of Crucial CAF Cup Tie

A dispute over football jerseys between Moroccan and Algerian teams has once again disrupted a crucial CAF Cup tie. The controversy erupted when Algerian customs officers seized the jerseys of RS Berkane, a Moroccan club, due to the inclusion of a map depicting the disputed Western Sahara region, resulting in the cancellation of the match against USM Alger.

Despite the cancellation, gestures of friendship were exchanged upon the Algerian delegation’s arrival in Morocco, emphasizing the bonds between the two nations’ sporting communities. However, moments before the match was set to commence, USM Alger abruptly left the stadium, leaving both teams and their supporters disheartened.

As RS Berkane secures their place in the final of the tournament, the incident serves as a reminder of the broader geopolitical complexities that often overshadow sporting events in North Africa.
