CODM Meknes produced a composed away comeback to beat Amal Tiznit 2-1 in The Botola Pro on 25 October 2026, overturning an early deficit with a controlled second-half display. Amal Tiznit started brightly and took the lead, but CODM’s midfield gradually took charge and secured all three points with a late winner.
Match overview
Amal Tiznit made the stronger start and were rewarded in the 18th minute when Youssef El Amrani finished off a quick move down the right. The home side’s early energy lifted the crowd, and they pressed aggressively in an attempt to double their advantage.

The equaliser arrived in the 39th minute through Hamza Ait Baha, who struck from just outside the area after Amal failed to clear a corner properly. That goal changed the momentum of the match. CODM controlled more of the ball after the break, and their patience was rewarded in the 82nd minute when Mehdi Chraibi converted a low cross from the left to seal the comeback.

Tactical story
Amal Tiznit’s early intensity was built on quick transitions and pressure high up the pitch. Their opening goal came from exactly that approach, but the home side struggled to maintain the same rhythm after the half-hour mark. CODM Meknes adjusted their midfield shape, closing the central passing lanes and forcing Amal to play longer, less accurate passes.
In the second half, CODM’s control became more pronounced. Their full-backs pushed higher, creating width and allowing the attacking midfielders to drift into dangerous pockets. The winning goal came from a patient build-up that stretched the Amal defence before a low cross was converted at the near post. Amal responded with late pressure but could not find a second equaliser.
Standout players
Hamza Ait Baha was influential for CODM, scoring the equaliser and driving the midfield forward throughout the second half. Mehdi Chraibi’s match-winning contribution underlined his importance in the final third. For Amal Tiznit, Youssef El Amrani’s early goal and movement were positives, but the home side will be disappointed with their inability to protect the lead.
Season impact
The victory gives CODM Meknes valuable momentum in The Botola Pro and strengthens their position in the league standings. Amal Tiznit remain in need of consistency, particularly at home, where dropped points can prove costly over the course of the season. CODM’s comeback also sends a clear message about their resilience in away fixtures.
