CAF CL: FC Samartex earns draw against Morocco’s Raja Club in enthralling four-goal thriller

Two goals by Francis Gyentuaa and Mohammed Zrida gave FC Samartex the lead in the first half after Mohammed Zrida put the Moroccan club ahead early in the first half.

However, Mohammed Boulacsout’s second-half strike was enough to secure a draw for Raja Club ahead of the return leg in Casablanca next week.

The Moroccan side dominated and dictated the play in the opening minutes of the game, keeping the Ghanaian side on the back foot.

Raja’s Mohammed Zrida opened the scoring for the away side in the 20th minute when he headed home from close after some poor defending by FC Samartex 1996.

Francis Gyentuaa restored parity for FC Samartex with a spectacular overhead kick, which was poorly handled by Raja Club goalkeeper Anas Zniti in the 38th minute.
