Raja Club Athletic (Arabic: نادي الرجاء الرياضي, romanized: Nādī ar–Rajāʾ ar–Riyāḍī) is a professional sports club based in Casablanca, Morocco. They played their first ever international match in 17 September 1950 in the North African Cup and won by walkover. The club played in a CAF-organized competition for the first time in 1983 and took part in the now-defunct African Cup Winners' Cup as Throne Cup winners and lost 1–0 on aggregate to Senegalese side ASF Police. It was their only participation in this competition. Raja CA is the Moroccan club with the most African appearances.

Raja CA has had the most success in the African Cup, winning the trophy for three times. Raja won the inaugural season under the revamped CAF Champions League title and format in 1997. The club has also won the last edition of the CAF Cup in 2003 before it was merged with the African Cup Winners' Cup, the Confederation Cup in 2018 and 2021, the Super Cup in 2000 and 2019, the Afro-Asian Cup in 1998, the Arab Club Champions Cup in 2006 and 2021 and the UNAF Club Cup in 2015. Raja has also participated in two FIFA Club World Cups with their best performance being the second place in 2013. Raja CA, with 12 trophies, is the most successful team in Morocco and the third in Africa in international club football.

Braces[edit]


Notes[edit]

  1. ^ Some RC Bafoussam players took part in the 1990 World Cup, so Raja accepted the postponement of the match. CAF reschedules the first leg for July 25, a date which does not correspond to the club's calendar. Raja refused to travel to Cameroon and was disqualified.
  2. ^ ASC El Ahmedi withdrew and Raja advanced to the next round
  3. ^ CAPS United were ejected after the first leg for giving false information about two Malawian players in their first round match against AS Inter Star. AS Inter Star were re-instated.
  4. ^ Tourbillon withdrew after the first leg.
  5. ^ The match was scheduled to be played over one leg in Casablanca due to the political situation in Côte d'Ivoire
  6. ^ Al-Hilal were sanctioned with a 3-0 loss after the pitch was invaded and the referee was assaulted by the club's supporters
  7. ^ Shabab Rafah couldn't obtain licenses from the colonial authorities to go out to the West Bank and from there to Morocco
