TP Mazembe were making their first appearance in the final but it was the Moroccans who made a nervy start, with Ravens forward Kgalebane Mohlakoana having one shot blocked before her follow-up effort was deflected into the arms of AS FAR keeper Khadija Er-Rmichi.<\/p>\n
Replays showed the ball had struck the arm of centre-back Rabbah, and a penalty was eventually awarded following a lengthy video assistant referee (VAR) check.<\/p>\n
Kasaj sent the spot-kick right of centre, just past the dive of Er-Rmichi, and TP Mazembe spurned a glorious chance to make it 2-0 soon after.<\/p>\n
Lacho Marta was released down the right and her cutback found striker Kanjinga, who skewed her shot narrowly wide of the left-hand upright with the goal gaping.<\/p>\n
AS FAR struggled to impose themselves on the game and rarely threatened in the second half, with the Ravens looking more likely to extend their lead.<\/p>\n
Ngoy did misjudge one cross with nine minutes left, but the ball would not drop to El Madani and the chance swiftly passed.<\/p>\n
Morocco boss Jorge Vilda was in attendance a day after the North Africans were drawn in a group alongside DR Congo at next year\u2019s Women’s Africa Cup of Nations<\/a> yet it was the Central Africans who outshone the Atlas Lionesses players on show and sealed a deserved victory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
