“This is a very big achievement for us and everyone who belongs to Young Africans. We have worked hard and deserved to win the trophy,” said the Moroccan coach.
Striker Fiston Mayele who is the team’s leading scorer and netted a brace against Coastal Union says winning the League title means a lot to him as a player. “It feels good that I have scored several goals to help my team win the title. This title will motivate us to keep working hard so that we win more trophies,” added Mayele.
