Since everything has an end, 2004–05 was for Usmistes the end of an era that has long been dreaming all lovers of the club. The fifth league title was won under the leadership of Mustapha Aksouh it is the last title for Saïd Allik as a president. In the last round, the struggle for survival was between CR Belouizdad and OMR El Annasser although USM Alger does not need to win, it crushed OMR El Annasser with a four, all scored by Michael Eneramo to be the youngest player to score a hat-trick in USM Alger's first team, at 19 years old. The reason why Al Ittihad played with such strength goes back to the 1993–94 season in second division, when the struggle for promoted was between ASO Chlef and USM Alger, and in the last round ASO Chlef won against OMR El Annasser it took place at Stade 20 Août 1955 and USM Alger accused them of facilitating their mission, to go up to the first division by direct match difference.
