The title race intensifies in the first division league.
The excitement and thrill continue in the professional championship "Inwi" in its first division, as the curtain has fallen on the competitions of the twenty-fifth round, which kept the fierce competition at its peak. The lead is still fluctuating between the trio of Maghreb Fes, Royal Army, and Renaissance Berkane, while the scene at the bottom of the standings is not much different, as the gap between the clubs narrows from round to round, keeping the hopes of the relegation-threatened teams alive for survival, and bringing other clubs into the danger zone.
In this round, Maghreb Fes succeeded in regaining the lead after a valuable victory over Hassania Agadir with a score of two goals to one, allowing "the Mouloudia" to continue their pursuit of a title that has been absent from the club's treasury for more than forty years.
The Fes team capitalized on the setbacks of their rivals, as the Royal Army settled for a draw at the Adrar Stadium against Olympique Dcheira, whose situation is becoming increasingly complicated at the bottom of the standings. Meanwhile, Renaissance Berkane experienced their second consecutive setback with a goalless draw at home against Olympique Safi, who continues to struggle in the relegation zone, especially after returning to the last position.
In the context of the leading pack, Raja Casablanca returned to the winning track with an exciting victory over Renaissance Zemamra with a score of four goals to three, allowing "the Eagles" to maintain their chances in the competition for the championship trophy, as they are only three points behind the leader.
On the other hand, Wydad Casablanca continued to bleed points, suffering their second consecutive loss, this time against Fath Rabat with a score of two goals to one, allowing the Rabat team to rise to sixth place.
As for Ittihad Tangier, they continue to move forward positively under coach Abdelhak Benchikha, returning with three points from the home of Kawkab Marrakech. Similarly, Ittihad Tawraka continued their journey away from the danger zones with a new victory over the Meknes club with two goals to none.
In the same context, Ittihad Sport Yaacoub Al-Mansour wrote a different ending to the course of their match, turning their loss by one goal against Hassania Agadir into a victory with two goals to one, thus maintaining their hopes of survival in the first division; while "Ghazala Sous" remains among the teams threatened with relegation, as they are only seven points away from the playoff position.
This is indeed a new turning point in the life of this season's championship, and the upcoming round is expected to clarify the standings more accurately, as it carries within it an anticipated summit between the leader Maghreb Fes and the third-placed Renaissance Berkane. A victory for the Fes team will bring them closer to the title, while any other result will rearrange the top positions, especially since the Royal Army will be pleased with the setbacks of their rivals, as they host Kawkab Marrakech, raising the banner of victory and reclaiming the lead. Notably, round 27 will also feature another summit that will bring the military team together with Renaissance Berkane, confirming that direct confrontations will inevitably determine the identity of the title holder.
