Wydad Casablanca made history on Monday, after defeating Egypt’s Al Ahly 2-0, snatching the CAF Champions League Cup.

WAC’s Zouheir El Moutaraji scored both his team’s victory goals at 15,’ and 48.’

Tonight’s game was marked by the presence of FIFA president Gianni Infantino, alongside the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) president Fouzi Lekjaa.

Egypt’s Al Ahly had won both latest CAF Champions League titles.

The Egyptian club missed out on a third consecutive victory, although they had won the most titles in the sporting event’s history (10).

On the other hand, Wydad had two CAF Champions League titles, adding its third tonight in its home court.

The Moroccan club last won the Cup in 2017, 25 years after taking home the title in 1992, having previously lost twice in the sporting event, in 2011 and 2019.
