CAF decided Wednesday evening to defend Morocco after a game between RS Berkane Club and its host USM Alger was suspended due to Algerian customs confiscating the team’s jerseys on the grounds that they “bear the map of the Kingdom.”
CAF issued its decision, a copy of which was received by Hesport, confirming that the Algerian team lost the match with a score of 3-0, after refusing to play the match with RS Berkane in the official shirts of the Moroccan football representative in this competition.
The same decision stated that “the case will be referred to the disciplinary committee to impose sanctions on the Algerian team,” for refusing to play RS Berkane.
The governing body for football also decided that the return match will be held on time, on April 28, at the municipal stadium in the city of Berkane.
