Raja and Wydad Ultras boycott a game to be hosted by Marrakech

Raja Club Athletic and Wydad AC are expected to play a game scheduled for January the 6th in Marrakech. The game will be boycotted by Ultras supporting the two teams, announced the two groups in a communiqué.

«It is an unusual decision», said Raja’s fans on their official Facebook page, explaining that «the decision has been taken after it was announced that the decisive game will be played in Marrakech and not in Casablanca».

The two groups denounced the fact that similar games must be played in Casablanca, the city that hosts the two teams. «Instead of closing Mohammed V stadium, authorities must improve the situation of the facility», wrote the two groups.

«It is a shame to see that officials are unable to host a local football event at a time when they are betting to organize international tournaments», they argued.
