BERRECHID, Morocco (Interstat) — Hassania Agadir rallied from a first-half deficit to defeat Olympic Safi 2-1 on Monday in a Botola Pro match at Stade Municipal de Berrechid.

Olympic Safi struck first in the eighth minute when substitute Moussa Koné finished a chance from the right side. The goal came against the run of play, as Hassania Agadir controlled much of the early possession. However, the home side equalized in the 58th minute when forward Baba Bello Ilou scored from the left side, converting an assist from defender Mouad Bahssain. Ilou struck again three minutes later, again from the left side, to put Hassania Agadir ahead. The assist on the second goal came from defender Euclides Cabral.

Ilou finished with two goals, his first of the season. Koné had the lone goal for Olympic Safi, which managed only a handful of clear chances after the opening minutes. Hassania Agadir’s defense tightened after the equalizer, and goalkeeper made key saves to preserve the lead.

Defender Mouad Bahssain received a caution in the 47th minute. Forward Mohamed Bakhkhach was cautioned in the 86th minute, and substitutes Marwane Elaz and Saad El Morsli were booked in stoppage time — Elaz in the 90th plus fourth minute and El Morsli in the 90th plus sixth minute.

The match was the season opener for both sides. Hassania Agadir showed resilience after conceding early, and Ilou’s quick double in the second half proved decisive. Olympic Safi struggled to regain momentum after the second goal, managing no further shots on target in the final half-hour.

Substitutes for Hassania Agadir contributed significantly: Houari Ferhani, Saad El Morsli and Marwane Elaz each recorded an assist, while forward Mohamed Bakhkhach also provided an assist. The assists came in the buildup to the two Ilou goals, though specific timing was not confirmed.
