In the second leg, Yahia Attiyat Allah struck in the 27th minute to put the Moroccan side back on level terms, but Al Ahly grabbed the crucial equaliser in the 78th-minute courtesy of a fine header by Egyptian international Mohamed Abdelmoneim.

BBC reports that Nonetheless, Al Ahly's Percy Tau, Hussein El Shahat and Mahmoud Kahraba, who compose perhaps Africa's most talented frontline, struggled to threaten the Wydad goal.

Al Ahly claimed a 3-2 aggregate win to claim the title for the 11th time in their history.

After the match, players took their celebrations to the airport, where Percy Tau and teammates danced to ‘Calm Down’ (remix) ft Selena Gomez.

“Now he can come home help us win the Morocco game. He worked hard in this competition so now duty calls.”

Another added:

“Congratulations Percy. You deserve it and thank you for making SA proud.”
