Horoya AC Set to Face Etoile Sportive du Sahel in Confederation Cup Play-Offs with Tightened Security Measures
Horoya AC will face Tunisia’s Etoile Sportive du Sahel this Sunday in a crucial Confederation Cup play-off match at the Stade du 28 Septembre in Conakry. Ahead of this high-stakes encounter, both the Guinean club and the Guinean Football Federation have implemented stringent measures to prevent any disruptions during the match, following incidents in their previous home game.
The match is expected to be played in front of a sold-out crowd, with ticket sales beginning this Friday and ending by Saturday evening. To maintain order and ensure the safety of all attendees, all vehicles will be banned from entering the stadium without a proper pass. This decision comes as a response to previous incidents during the game against CS Sfaxien, where projectiles were thrown, and there were reports of unauthorized ticket trading facilitated by stadium security forces.
The upcoming fixture, set to kick off at 4:30 p.m. local time on Sunday, April 20, will be a pivotal moment for both clubs as they vie for progress in the prestigious competition. The enhanced security and logistical measures aim to provide a safe and fair environment for both teams and fans alike.
Horoya AC will be looking to deliver a strong performance at home, while Etoile Sportive du Sahel, a seasoned competitor, will be aiming to secure an important away result.
