The CAF Super Cup (also known as African Super Cup or for sponsorship reasons TotalEnergies CAF Super Cup) is an annual African association football competition contested between the winners of the CAF Champions League and the CAF Confederation Cup. The competition was first held in 1993 and is organized by the CAF.
Egyptian clubs have the highest number of victories (12 titles), followed by Morocco with 5. Morocco have the largest number of winning teams, with four clubs from each having won the title. The competition has been won by 16 clubs, 6 of which have won it more than once. Al Ahly is the most successful club in the competition's history, having won the tournament a record 8 times. RS Berkane are the current defending champions, having beaten Wydad AC by two goals to nil in the 2022 CAF Super Cup.[1]
It is played in a single match and on the field of the winner of the Champions League (exception in 2007). Until 2003, the African Supercup pitted the winner of the Champions League against the winner of the African Cup Winners' Cup. When the latter disappeared, it was the winner of the Confederation Cup who took the place.
Fez Maghreb is the first Confederation Cup winning club to have won the CAF Supercup since the CAF Champions League winner clashed with the Confederation Cup winner.[2]
In July 2016, Total secured an eight-year sponsorship package from the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to support 10 of its principal competitions. Total started with the Africa Cup of Nations that was held in Gabon therefore renaming it Total Africa cup of Nations.[8] Due to this sponsorship, starting from 2017 the tournament is called the "Total CAF Super Cup".
