Moroccan clubs continued their dominance of Africa's secondary club tournament as Raja Casablanca won last season's title. 

RS Berkane defeated Orlando Pirates 5-4 on penalties following a 1-1 draw in the CAF Confederation Cup final at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Nigeria on Friday night.

Both goals were scored in extra-time as Youssef El Fahli broke the deadlock after Berkane were awarded a penalty.

However, Thembinkosi Lorch levelled matters ensuring that the match went into a penalty shootout where the Pirates star became the villain. 

Kabelo Dlamini was recalled to the starting line-up as the Pirates coach coaches Mandla Ncikazi and Fadlu Davids made one change to the team which faced Libyan side Al Ahli Tripoli in the semi-final first-leg match last weekend. 

The South African giants were looking to become the first South African club to win the Confederation Cup having lost to Etoile du Sahel of Tunisia in the 2015 final.
