Josef Zinnbauer's Raja Casablanca have been crowned Botola Pro 1 champions on the final day of the season in Morocco.
The title hopes changed for Raja on the last match day after defeating Wydad Casablanca on the same day AS FAR drew and relinquished top spot.
Zinnbauer's charges settled any nerves in the first half when Abdellah Khafifi opened the scoring on Friday evening in the 34th minute.

The lead was doubled on the stroke of halftime after Yousri Bouzok converted a penalty to put the side in touching distance.
Bouzok was not done there, as the attacking midfielder completed his brace and extended Raja's lead after converting another spot-kick, which ultimately sealed the win.
The win sees Raja become the 'Invincibles' after going the entire 2023/2024 campaign without a loss, clinching their 13th title in fine style.
While Zinnbauer celebrated, it was heartbreak for AS FAR coach Nasreddine Nabi who had to settle for second spot despite leading for most of the campaign.
Nabi has been linked with a move to South African side Kaizer Chiefs, with reports suggesting that he could be allowed to leave at the end of the season.
