Tournament

The final took place between the two winning semi-finalists, Kawkab Marrakech and Wydad Athletic Club, on 28 June 1964 at the Stade d'honneur in Casablanca. The match was refereed by Salih Mohamed Boukkili. It was the fourth final for Wydad AC, who had never won the competition, and the third for KAC Marrakech, who were in their third final, and second consecutive. The club had won their first title the previous season. KAC Marrakech scored the first couple of goals, thanks to Abdelkrim Zaidani, known as Krimou ( 35'), and an og from Lahcen ( 54' (og)). Wydad responded with a goal from Bouzidi ( 56'), and an equaliser from Mohamed Khalfi ( 66'). However, the Casablancan comeback was in vain, thanks to KAC Marrakech scoring a final goal through Khaldi ( 87'). It was the second consecutive win for Kawkab Marrakech in the competition, and the fourth defeat for Wydad, who were yet to win a title.[1]
