Masud Juma

The former Cape Town City FC forward was trusted with another start as his Difaâ Hassani El Jadidi suffered a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Raja Casablanca.

Difaâ put up some resistance against the Moroccan giants and stood tall at everything that was thrown at them in the first half as they went into the break locked in a barren draw.

Raja however turned on the style late in the second half as they broke the deadlock in the 67th minute when Mohamed Nahiri’s shot was deflected into the net.

Mohsine Moutaouali missed a golden chance to double Raja’s lead in the 84th minute but he failed to hold his nerve as he missed from the spot.

Raja finally assured all three points in the 91st minute when Soufiane Benjdida slalomed inside the Difaâ defense to fire in the ball from a tight angle.

Wilson Waweru

The Kenyan midfielder started for Galway United as they handed Cobh Ramblers a 4-0 drabbing in the Irish second tier to keep their promotion hopes alive.

It only took 20 minutes for Maxwell Hemmings to open the scoring for Galway United and bag his second goal of the season since joining from USL League One side Greenville.

Edward McCarthy bagged a brace in the 36th and the second minute of first-half added time to ensure Galway went into the break with a commanding 3-0 lead.

Waweru was withdrawn in the 65th minute for Charlie Lyons as Galway went on to complete their route in the 91st minute through Manu Dimas.
