Esperance de Tunis were crowned Caf Champions League winners after Wydad Casablanca refused to return to the field in protest of VAR not being implemented on a goal that was ruled out.
Having trailed 1-0 to a Youcef Belaili stunner in the first-half, the Moroccans thought they’d equalised through Walid El Karti in the 58th minute, but his header was ruled out for offside.
The Tunisian club won 2-1 on aggregate to claim their fourth continental championship in club history. The controversy captured the attention of South Africa's Premier Soccer League club Orlando Pirates' head coach Milutin Sredojevic.
