The Confederation of African Football (CAF) is set to debut the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) for the first time this weekend.

VAR will be introduced in Casablanca on Saturday during the CAF Super Cup match.

In a statement on Tuesday, CAF said this was a huge step for African football.

“It’s a historic moment for African football.

“I’m proud that Africa has taken the initiative to embrace the latest technology towards the development of football, and I’m positive the impact will be felt at all levels of the game,” CAF general secretary, Amr Fahmy, said.

The Super Cup will feature Morocco’s Wydad Casablanca and TP Mazembe of DR Congo.
