“The players delivered an exceptional performance against a high-caliber team,” Al Karma stated.
“We created some great scoring opportunities but, unfortunately, couldn’t capitalize on them.
Missing that last-minute chance in extra time cost us the opportunity to leave Casablanca with a point.”
While disappointed with the result, Al Karma remained upbeat, noting the positive response from fans. “Our performance earned respect from everyone,” he said.

Their support motivates us to continue improving and building a competitive team that plays attractive football.”

“I promise to develop a team that can leave a mark in future tournaments,” he assured.
The draw against Wydad, one of Morocco’s most prominent clubs, showcased Olympique Safi’s potential to compete at a higher level.
With Al Karma’s determination and the backing of the fans, the team aims to make a strong impression in upcoming competitions.
This result, though not ideal, could serve as a foundation for building momentum in their campaign, with supporters hopeful for a successful season ahead.
