DARK SUNDAY FOR SA: Moroccan Giants Humiliate Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies to Steal African Crown

HEARTBREAK FOR SOUTH AFRICA: Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies lose 3-1 to AS FAR in Champions League final

The Brazilians’ dream of becoming the first three-time CAF Women’s Champions League winners has been shattered after a disappointing defeat in Egypt.

JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA — 15 NOVEMBER 2026

Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies have suffered a painful defeat in the CAF Women’s Champions League final after losing 3-1 to Moroccan giants AS FAR at the Suez Canal Stadium on Sunday evening.

The result has ended Sundowns’ hopes of making history by becoming the first club to win the prestigious continental competition three times. Instead, it is AS FAR who have secured another memorable achievement in African women’s football.

The South African champions entered the final determined to bring the trophy back home after an impressive campaign in Egypt. However, they came up against a determined Moroccan side that proved too strong on the night.

For Sundowns, the encounter represented more than just another final. It was an opportunity to strengthen their position among Africa’s leading women’s football clubs and establish an unprecedented record in the competition.

The Brazilians had previously won the CAF Women’s Champions League in 2021 and 2023, making them one of the most successful teams in the tournament’s history.
