Renaissance Berkane reaches the semi-finals of the African Champions League and sets a date with Royal Army
On Sunday, March 22, 2026, Renaissance Berkane achieved a historic milestone by reaching the semi-finals of the African Champions League for the first time after defeating Sudan’s Al-Hilal 1-0 in the second leg of the quarter-finals held at Amahoro Stadium in Kigali, Rwanda.
The Berkane team secured their passage by benefiting from the away goal rule, following a 1-1 draw in the first leg at Municipal Stadium in Berkane. This victory allows the Moroccan representative to continue their continental adventure in the Champions League, a competition from which they have been absent from the advanced stages in previous years.
Renaissance Berkane will now face Royal Army in an all-Moroccan clash, promising a competitive encounter as both teams vie for a spot in the final.
This qualification underscores the transformation that the Berkane club is experiencing on the continental stage, having been predominantly associated with the African Confederation Cup in recent years before successfully making their first appearance in the Champions League semi-finals.
