The prefect of police of Casablanca, Abdellah El Ouardi, assured that the Director General of National Security has given firm instructions so that nothing will disrupt the security of people and property during this long-awaited final between Wydad of Casablanca and Al Ahly of Egypt.

The law enforcement officers will have the mission of identifying people holding fake tickets or wishing to access the stadium without a ticket. Likewise, a search will be carried out at the entrance of the complex. The DGSN has not spared any means to ensure security during this match which will be attended by many personalities from the sports world, including the President of FIFA, Gianni Infantino.
