All tickets for the second leg of the CAF Champions League final between AS FAR and Mamelodi Sundowns have been sold, organisers have confirmed, with a full-capacity crowd expected at the Stade Prince Moulay Abdellah in Rabat.
The announcement ensures a packed stadium for one of the most anticipated fixtures in African club football, as two of the continent’s most decorated sides meet in the decisive leg of the competition.
The match will be played on Sunday, 24 May 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 20:00 local time (19:00 GMT).
With no tickets remaining, a vibrant and intense atmosphere is expected in Rabat, where AS FAR will look to use home support to their advantage against a Mamelodi Sundowns team known for its attacking style and experience on the continental stage.
The final will be contested over two legs, with the first meeting set for Sunday, 17 May 2026, in Tshwane, South Africa. That encounter is expected to shape the tie before it concludes in Morocco a week later.
Both clubs have progressed through a demanding campaign to reach the final, overcoming strong opposition in Africa’s premier club competition.
Mamelodi Sundowns are aiming to win the CAF Champions League for a second time, having previously lifted the trophy in 2016. Meanwhile, AS FAR are seeking to end a long wait for continental success, with their only title dating back to 1985.
In addition to the sporting significance, the final carries increased financial rewards. Patrice Motsepe has confirmed that the winners will receive USD 6 million, representing a 50% rise in prize money.
Attention now turns to the pitch, with expectations of a closely contested final defined by high stakes, quality, and a charged atmosphere in front of a sold-out crowd.
