Renaissance Berkane Faces Pyramids in African Super Cup Final in Cairo
All eyes of African football fans will turn to the 30 June Stadium in Cairo on October 18, 2025, as it hosts the African Super Cup final between Moroccan side Renaissance Berkane and Egyptian club Pyramids. This anticipated encounter brings together the champions of both regions for an exciting football evening.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) announced on its official website that the match will kick off at 8 PM local time (7 PM Moroccan time). This marks a return to Cairo for this continental celebration after more than a decade, with the last edition held in 2014.
The match represents a special test for Renaissance Berkane, the CAF Confederation Cup champions, who are aiming to secure their second title in the tournament after winning it in 2022. Meanwhile, Pyramids, recent winners of the CAF Champions League, are looking to etch their name in the prestigious continental title’s history for the first time.
The previous edition of the African Super Cup took place in Riyadh, where Egyptian club Zamalek claimed the title against their rivals Al Ahly. This victory continued the dominance of Egyptian clubs in the competition’s history, which began in 1993 and has seen 17 different clubs crowned champions, with Al Ahly leading the tally with eight titles.
The clash between Berkane and Pyramids underscores the strong presence of Arab clubs in the African football scene and reflects the rising level of competition in the continent’s tournaments, which have garnered widespread attention from football fans around the world.
