Fadlu Davids' dreams shattered after RS ​​Berkane win the Confederation Cup!

Tanzanians' dreams of winning the Confederation Cup evaporated today after Moroccan club RS Berkane crushed them with a 3-1 victory in the final. Coach Fadlu Davids' dreams also ended, and the Moroccan club's third Confederation Cup was added to its history.

In a dominant continental display, RS Berkane cemented their status as African football royalty by defeating Tanzania's Simba SC 3-1 on aggregate in a thrilling two-legged final.

The decisive second leg at Zanzibar's Amaan Stadium on Sunday saw the Moroccans defend their first-leg advantage with composure, shattering Simba's dreams of a maiden continental crown. For Simba coach Fadlu Davids - the former Orlando Pirates tactician - the result marked a painful setback in his promising coaching journey.

History Repeats for Heartbroken Simba
The Tanzanian giants' wait for continental glory continues, having now suffered final defeats in both 1993 (CAF Cup) and 2025. Despite home advantage in the return leg, they couldn't overturn Berkane's commanding lead established through first-half strikes from Senegalese midfielder Mamadou Camara and Moroccan attacker Oussama Lamlaoui in the opening encounter.

Berkane's Continental Mastery
This triumph marks Berkane's third Confederation Cup title, further solidifying their reputation as North Africa's cup specialists. Their tactical discipline and clinical finishing proved the difference across both legs, leaving Simba's players slumped on the pitch at the final whistle.

The victory parade through Berkane's streets promises to be a spectacle, while Simba must regroup after another heartbreaking near-miss in continental competition.
