2000 African Cup Winners' Cup

The 2000 African Cup Winners' Cup was the twenty-sixth season of Africa's second oldest club football tournament organised by CAF.

In a final featuring two giants of African club football, four time African champions Zamalek of Egypt defeated three time African champions Canon Yaoundé of Cameroon 4–3 on aggregate over two-legs.

A total of 38 teams from 38 CAF associations qualified for the tournament after winning their respective premier domestic cups. Of the 38 teams that qualified 1 withdrew before fulfilling all of its fixtures and another was disqualified;

The tournament consisted of five rounds preceding a two-legged final.

The away goals rule was used to determine the victors in the event of a match being tied over the two-legs. If it was not possible to determine a winner using the away goals rule, the tie went to a penalty shootout to determine the winner.

The first legs were played on 29 & 30 January, and the second legs were played on 12 & 14 February 2000.

Notes:

The first legs were played from 17–19 March, and the second legs were played from 31 March-2 April 2000 with the exception of the matches between ASEC Ndiambour and ASEC Mimosas which were played on the 2nd (first leg) and 16th (second leg) of April.
