Stephane Aziz Ki scored the opener for Wydad after just six minutes while Lorch double the advantage after just 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, Mohamed Bakhkhach cut one back just four minutes later in an exciting opening frenzy. However, after those three early goals things calmed down and Wydad managed to bring the three points home.
