Tactical Story
Agadir lined up with an aggressive 4-3-3, looking to overload the flanks and pin Maghreb Fez deep. For much of the first hour, the plan worked: the hosts dominated possession, won second balls in midfield, and created several promising openings. However, their finishing lacked the killer instinct required at this level.
Maghreb Fez responded with a disciplined 4-2-3-1 that gradually transformed into a low block, inviting pressure before springing forward on the break. Their midfield duo shielded the back four effectively, and once El Moussaoui equalised, the away side looked the more likely winners. The winning goal epitomised their approach — absorb, transition, punish.

- Hamza El Moussaoui (Maghreb Fez): The catalyst for the comeback, scoring the equaliser and constantly troubling Agadir's defence.
