Ittihad Tanger and visitors Kawkab Marrakech played out a goalless 0-0 draw on Sunday at the Grand Stade de Tanger, in a match counting for the tenth round of the Professional League.

However, Ittihad Tanger failed to capitalize on their numerical advantage to secure all three points.

Following this draw, Ittihad Tanger increased their points tally to 12, placing them seventh in the league. Kawkab Marrakech, meanwhile, moved to 8 points, occupying eleventh position, pending the outcome of the remaining matches of the round.
