The 2024 CAF Super Cup, known as The Super of the Century,[3] officially TotalEnergies CAF Super Cup 2024 for sponsorship reasons,[4] was the 33rd 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 the 2023–24 CAF Champions League winners, Al Ahly, and the 2023–24 CAF Confederation Cup winners, Zamalek, both from Egypt and both sides of the Cairo derby, on 27 September 2024 at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.[5]

Zamalek won the match 4–3 on penalties, after the original time ended 1–1, to secure their fifth CAF Super Cup title.[6] The match was the third continental encounter between two Egyptian clubs, and the second in a Super Cup final.

The match set numerous records. This was Zamalek's fifth title, all of which came against opponents from the UNAF region.
