RS Berkane loses in Zambia, delaying their qualification for the African Champions League

RS Berkane suffers a 2-0 defeat against Zambia's Power Dynamos, postponing their chances of qualifying for the African Champions League knockout stage.

RS Berkane, the Moroccan football team, faced its second consecutive defeat in the group stage of the African Champions League, losing 2-0 to Zambia's Power Dynamos during the fifth round of Group A. This loss means that Berkane will have to wait until the final round of matches to determine their qualification for the quarter-finals, as they have now dropped to the second position in their group.

In the match held at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium in Ndola, Power Dynamos scored both goals in the second half. The first goal came just two minutes after the break when Ronel Manyanga seized on a defensive error by RS Berkane and found the back of the net. The Zambian team then doubled their lead in the second minute of stoppage time with a powerful shot from Prince Mumba, who converted a cross from substitute Chifundo Mphasi, sealing the victory for Power Dynamos and securing three crucial points.

Following this match, Power Dynamos moved up to seven points, placing them third in the group, while RS Berkane remains in the second position but is now under pressure as the fight for qualification intensifies between the two teams. With Berkane's previous defeat to Pyramids FC, which was a 3-0 loss, the upcoming final match will be pivotal in determining which teams advance to the knockout stage of this prestigious tournament.
