CHAN 2024: An Algerian referee to blow the opening whistle of the tournament
The opening match of CHAN 2024 will be officiated by a well-known Algerian referee on the continent.
Lotfi Bekouassa has been appointed by CAF to take charge of the tournament's inaugural clash between Tanzania and Burkina Faso, this Saturday, August 2, at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium in Dar es Salaam.
