2010 North African Cup of Champions

The North African Cup of Champions is a tournament designed by the Union of North African Football (UNAF) that puts together the winners of the domestic leagues around North Africa. The tournament contains representatives from Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia.[1][2]

Origin

On October 6, the representatives of the Federation of North African Football (FNAF) met in Tunis. They agreed that North Africa, once one of the strongest regions in African football, did not have a regional competition that represented the region. Therefore, the President of the FNAF, the Algerian Mohamed Raouraoua, along with the rest of the FNAF, decided that two new competitions would be started in order to bring together the best sides in North Africa. The Cup of Champions brings together the winners of the five domestic leagues in North Africa, whereas the Cup Winners' Cup matches the winners of the five domestic cup competitions around North Africa.

Format

The semi-finals and the final are two-legged affairs.
