Moghreb de Fès Edges Out Wydad in a Thrilling Encounter
In a gripping match on Sunday night, the Moghreb de Fès secured a narrow yet significant victory over their fierce rivals, Wydad Casablanca, with a final score of 1-0 during the 15th round of the Moroccan professional league. The match remained evenly poised until the 80th minute, when Idris El Jebali executed a breathtaking rabona goal, a moment that not only showcased his skill but also shifted the momentum in favor of the Fassis. Despite several attempts to equalize, Wydad failed to penetrate the resilient defense of Moghreb, culminating in a triumphant outing for the home team.
This victory propels Moghreb de Fès to the top of the league standings, momentarily claiming the lead with 31 points, while Wydad Casablanca finds itself stagnating in fourth place with 30 points. The defeat continues to be a challenging phase for French coach Patrice Carteron, who has yet to taste victory since taking the reins at Wydad. In his three matches so far, Carteron has faced two losses—one against Fath Union Sport of Rabat and another against the Moghreb de Fès—alongside a draw against Difaa Hassani d’El Jadida. The pressure is now on Carteron to turn around the fortunes of his team in the upcoming fixtures.
