Heavyweight clashes aplenty as Caf competitions reach semi-final stage

Some of Africa’s biggest clubs are set to collide in this weekend’s semi-finals across the continent

The Caf Champions League and Confederation Cup have reached the semi-final stage, with eight of Africa’s biggest clubs still in the running for the continent’s grandest prizes.

In the Champions League, Wydad Casablanca and Mamelodi Sundowns—both of whom advanced from the Group of Death—meet on Friday, where they’ll trade blows again after two cagey encounters earlier in the campaign.

Themba Zwane was the hero in Pretoria back in January, when Downs bounced back from their opening defeat away at Lobi Stars to win 2-1 in Pretoria.
