Moghreb Tetouan win Morocco title

Moghreb Tetouan snatch Morocco league title with victory in final match of the season over second place FUS Rabat

Coastal club Moghreb Tetouan won their first Moroccan league title with a 1-0 win over FUS Rabat in the final game of the season on Monday.

A 50th-minute goal from Abdelkarim Benhania lifted Tetouan to 61 points, four more than second-placed FUS Rabat.

The two unfancied teams had emerged as the only contenders for the title going into the final weekend of the season and by a quirk of fate were drawn to play each other.

Hosts FUS Rabat needed to win while a draw would have been good enough for Tetouan, who will now play in next year’s African Champions League.
