However, while the team continued to enjoy the joys of their sweat, Moroccan journalists brought up claims of the use of witchcraft in the post-match press conference.

The Jwaneng Galaxy FC CAF Champions League fairy tale took the most interesting of plots as they shocked continental kingpin Wydad Casablanca in their first-ever group stage game.

From eliminating Vipers SC and dumping South Africa's Orlando Pirates to beating the three-time Champions League champions on enemy territory, Jwaneng Galaxy is living the dream.

Vipers' punisher Thabang Sesinyi condemned the Moroccans to the defeat at the Mohamed V Stadium on Saturday.

However, while the team continued to enjoy the joys of their sweat, Moroccan journalists brought up claims of the use of witchcraft in the post-match press conference.

As Galaxy head coach Morena Ramoreboli faced the press, an unidentified journalist blatantly made the claims, which had the tactician fuming.

"Guys, you're being unfair," Ramoreboli told the journalists before adding:

"Ah, now you are undermining me; you're saying we won because of black magic! Don't disrespect us," he said before storming out of the press room.

The accusations came after the Botswana Premier League champion's players were pictured in the warm-ups spilling an unidentified liquid at the corner flag.

Following the result, Jwaneng Galaxy top Group B proceedings with three points, while Asec (one) Mimosa, Simba SC (one) and Wydad Casablanca come second, third and fourth, respectively.
