BREAKING: SuperSport and CAF reach ground-breaking TV agreement

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) and South African pay channel SuperSport have reportedly reached a ground-breaking football agreement.
According to reports, this season’s CAF Champions League and CAF Confederation Cup will be screened LIVE on SuperSport.
The agreement will kick off with the group stages of both tournament from next week.
It’s been more than two years since SuperSport televised either the CAF Champions League or the CAF Confederation Cup.
“We are pleased to confirm that we have acquired rights to the CAF national team and club competitions as per the attached schedule. We will broadcast matches and events of those competitions which are produced and made available by CAF to its licensed broadcasters,” said a MultiChoice spokesperson when approached by Soccer Laduma for comment.
Egypt’s Al Ahly are the defending CAF Champions League winners while Raja Club Athletic won last season’s CAF Confederation Cup.
Mzansi will be represented by Mamelodi Sundowns and AmaZulu in the CAF Champions League and by Orlando Pirates in the CAF Confederation Cup.

The veteran left-back from Zimbabwe, age 36, has replaced Ronwen Williams, who joined Mamelodi Sundowns, another Tshwane team. “He has extensive experience” (Gavin Hunt) Bhasera joined Matsatsantsa from Bidvest Wits in 2016 and has since participated in 156 games across all competitions for the team. Bash will serve as the team’s captain this year, according to a report from Gavin Hunt on Soccer Laduma. “He is a fantastic professional, and he has the experience. I believe he will accept the position since he is a leader. He will do well in this capacity, in my opinion. “It’s crucial for someone to join and be verbal and maintain the highest standards imaginable, which is true both on and off the field. Bash will succeed, I’m confident. He has my complete backing. I choose him. The vote was democratic. That was me. Being the captain carries a lot of responsibility, Bhasera continued. SuperSport is a large club, but I have to take it on with both hands and undoubtedly set an example by going out there myself. It’s going to be an exciting season because I have to play at the top of my game. “Ronwen did a great job for the club, so it’s a major loss, but it also presents a great opportunity for someone else to step forward and take his or her place. Williams has left, but that is football. The players are constantly on the move. He’ll do well at his new club, we hope.
