The Renaissance de Berkane was the biggest beneficiary of the 20th day, thanks to its victory against Olympic de Safi (1-0). The Difaâ d'El Jadida managed to limit the damage against Hassania d'Agadir (1-1), while Chabab Al Hoceima beat Moloudia d'Oujda (1-0).
Truncated by five matches due to the participation of Wydad, OCK, FUS and KACM in African Cups, the 20th day of the Botola Maroc Telecom D1 played into the hands of Renaissance Berkane. Indeed, the RSB got the better of Olympic de Safi, thanks to the goal scored by Traoré. As a result, Bertrand Marchand's men overtook Ittihad de Tanger and settled into third position in the standings, 4 points behind the leader, Wydad. On Saturday, Chabab Al Hoceima won against Moloudia d'Oujda with a goal signed by Saber Ghanjaoui (19th minute).
This 8th success of the season allows the Rifains to bring their capital to 27 points and settle comfortably in the middle of the table. The MCO, which strongly criticised the refereeing of Bouchaib Lahrach, guilty in the eyes of the Oujda leaders of having deprived their team of a penalty, totals 24 units in 11th position. Against Hassania d'Agadir, the Difaâ d'El Jadida managed to avoid defeat, conceding a draw (1-1). Leading the score following a penalty converted by their captain Zakaria Hadraf in the 31st minute, Abderrahim Talib's men were joined in the score four minutes before the end of the first half following a goal by Badie Aouk. If the Soussis remain among the leading group, the Difaâ is still not safe from relegation. It still occupies 13th place with 20 points.
