From the start of this meeting, the Moroccan club quickly put themselves above the Guineans. In the 6th minute of play, W. Sabbar showed the way to his side from a corner (1-0). Ten minutes later, the situation got even more complicated for Horoya AC. Following an off-field intervention, his goalkeeper, Moussa Pinpin Camara, received a red card. From pressure to pressure, Raja doubled the lead in the 41st minute, thanks to Mohammed Nahiri on a free kick (2-0), score at the break.
Back on the lawn, the Moroccan, Harkass, was punished with a red card. Despite this reduction, Raja Casablanca continued to create great chances. In the 61st minute, J. Walid Sabbar found the net (3-0). It was in the 68th minute that the red and white of Matam reduced the score through Pape Abdou N’Diaye (1-3).
