Kaizer Chiefs’ CAF Champions League match OFF

Kaizer Chiefs’ CAF Champions League match OFF

Kaizer Chiefs’ opening group match in this season’s CAF Champions League against Wydad Athletic in Morocco will not go ahead as scheduled this weekend.

Due to visa issues, Amakhosi weren’t permitted to fly to the North Africa country for their match which was due to be played on Saturday, 13 February.

SAFA issued a statement on Thursday, saying:

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has confirmed that the CAF Champions League match between Wydad Athletic Club from Casablanca in Morocco versus Kaizer Chiefs, will not be played as scheduled on Saturday, 13 February 2021.

In a one-liner correspondence sent to SAFA last night, CAF through its Competition Division manager, Ahmed Salem said ‘’CAF will communicate the updated decision in due time.’’

Chiefs were scheduled to have left for Casablanca on Wednesday evening but the team was denied entry visas to Morocco, forcing them to cancel the trip to North Africa.
