Caf announce change to Champions League and Confederation Cup final

Caf President Ahmad Ahmad has revealed changes to the format of Caf Champions League and Caf Confederation Cup finals on Wednesday.

Huge decision that @CAF_Online’s #exco took today : the #CAFChampionsLeague and #CAFConfederationsCup finals will be now played on a single game. #Football #CAF
