AS FAR to Miss Harimat in Champions League Quarter-Final First Leg
AS FAR will be without their captain, Rabie Harimat, for the first leg of the CAF Champions League quarter-finals due to an accumulation of yellow cards. Harimat received a booking in their last group stage match against Egyptian side Al Ahly.
The military club secured their spot in the quarter-finals after a goalless draw against Al Ahly in their sixth and final group stage fixture. AS FAR finished second in Group B with nine points.
The Moroccan representative is expected to face one of the group winners from Group A, C, or D in the next round. Potential opponents include Egypt's Pyramids FC, Sudan's Al Hilal, or Mali's Stade Malien, pending the official draw to determine their adversary.
Harimat's absence is a significant blow to the military team, given his crucial role within the squad. This will compel the technical staff to find a suitable replacement for him in the first leg.
