The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has approved the request of the Ghana Football Association to admit fans for Sunday’s TotalEnergies CAF Confederation Cup play-off 1st leg clash between Ghanaian Champions Accra Hearts of Oak and Algerian side JS Saoura at the Accra Sports stadium.
Ten Thousand (10,000) spectators will be granted entry into the Accra Sports stadium for the crucial 1st leg tie.
The Ghana Football Association wishes to inform stakeholders that it will team up with all relevant stakeholders to ensure that the match is played under the approved CAF/FIFA COVID-19 protocols.
The GFA advises Ghanaians to obey all the Protocols strictly to first and foremost have a successful match and also to avoid any sanctions from CAF.
The Rainbow club was drawn against JS Saoura after they crashed out of the CAF Champions League at the second qualifying round against Moroccan side Wydad Athletic Club.
Hearts were walloped 6-2 on aggregate following a 6-1 mauling in Casablanca.
The Phobians have failed to win in their first four matches of the 2021/22 Ghana Premier League and pressure is mounting on them to beat the Algerians to please the fans.
The first leg of the tie against JS Sauora is scheduled for November 28, 2021, in Accra, while the return leg is scheduled for December 5, 2021, in Algeria.
