JOHANNESBURG,
(CAJ News) – ZAMBIAN Janny Sikazwe’s flawless performance in the hotly-contested, eagerly-awaited Confederation of African Football Associations (CAF) Champions League match between Al Ahly and Mamelodi Sundowns underlined his status as one of the best referees in the continent.
The Zambian-born whistle man, hailed for his streetwise stance of allowing the game to flow without stoppages and many yellow cards but to crack the whip where necessary, came to the fore at the match at the Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium outside Pretoria where local titans Sundowns hosted the Egyptian rivals for a spot in the semifinals of Africa’s prime club football competition.
