The 2017 CAF Super Cup (officially the 2017 Total CAF Super Cup for sponsorship reasons)[1] was the 25th CAF Super Cup, an annual football match in Africa organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF), between the winners of the previous season's two CAF club competitions, the CAF Champions League and the CAF Confederation Cup.
The match was played between Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa, the 2016 CAF Champions League winners, and TP Mazembe of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the 2016 CAF Confederation Cup winners. It was hosted by Mamelodi Sundowns at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria on 18 February 2017.[2]
Mamelodi Sundowns defeated TP Mazembe 1–0 to win their first CAF Super Cup.[3]
