edit

On 20 June 2023, FAF named Lahlou Benbraham as the referee for the final, including assistant referees Akram Abbès Zerhouni and Hamza Bouzit. Abdelmoumen Touabti served as the fourth official.[4] Unlike the semi-finals which were played with a Video assistant referee, in the final was canceled due to problems with the company in charge of that Mediapro.[5] By postponing the championship matches, the president of the LFP penalized Chabab since with the new programming, Zakaria Draoui cannot play the final due to his suspension..[6]
