The Confederation of African Football CAF has announced the opening of a formal investigation into what it described as "serious security breaches" that occurred during two CAF Champions League group stage matches including the high profile clash between AS FAR Rabat & Al Ahly.

In brief statement released on Monday, CAF said:

The match in Rabat, which ended 1-1, saw sections of the AS FAR supporters throw dozens of plastic bottles onto the pitch both during stoppages and while Al Ahly pressed forward in dangerous situations.
