Team fights love Morocco’s Casablanca, a decisive confrontation against its Ivorian counterpart, ASEC Mimosas, in the confrontation scheduled to take place at six o’clock this evening, Saturday, Cairo time, within the sixth and final round of the group stage of the African Champions League competition.
Wydad occupies third place in the group standings with 6 points, behind runner-up Simba of Tanzania with the same amount of points, while Guaneng Galaxy of Botswana comes in fourth and last place with only 4 points, while ASEC of Ivory Coast tops the standings.
The qualification calculations were complicated for the Moroccan Wydad team in order to qualify for the quarter-finals, and ASEC secured qualification from the group stage and also the lead, as it has one match remaining and has 11 points..
The Moroccan team does not have any chances of qualifying, other than achieving a victory over ASEC of Ivory Coast, while waiting for a surprise from the Botswana team, Gwaneng Galaxy, by defeating Simba, which excels in direct confrontations against Wydad.
The Wydad Sports Club achieved a valuable victory over its host, Gwaneng Galaxy, Botswana, with a free goal in the match that brought them together in the fifth round of the group stage of the 2024 CAF Champions League.
I salute Wydad Athletic Club for its hope of qualifying and reaching the quarter-finals of the African Champions League, which it was keen to be in during the last eight seasons and won the title twice in 2017 and 2022. .
