ASFAR, under the management of Alexandre Santos, arrived at Loftus Versveld Stadium quietly, contrasting with the more animated arrival of their opponents, Mamelodi Sundowns.
Both teams are pursuing history in this high-stakes competition, with ASFAR’s return leg in Morocco having sold out just 14 days prior to the match.
This fervent interest highlights the significance of this two-legged final for the North African side.
