At the stroke of the first stanza, Lamlaoui Oussama slotted the ball home to place the Atlas Lions in the driving seat.
Tokyo Rakotondire levelled matters for Madagascar in the 68th minute after a great effort in the second stanza.
With 10 minutes on the clock, Lamlaoui fired the Atlas Lions into the lead, eventually handing them the deserved victory on the day.
On top of the title, Morocco walked away with USD 3.5 million as prize money, while first-time finalists Madagascar clinched a token of USD 1.2 million.
