Brahim Diaz was named man of the match by CAF after Morocco’s victory over Comoros (2-0) in the opening match of CAN 2025. The Real Madrid midfielder, who scored the tournament’s first goal in the 55th minute, was decisive in a match that was tightly contested for a long time.
Versatile and impactful, Diaz earned a penalty in the first half (missed by Rahimi) and constantly troubled the Comorian defense. His powerful shot from the penalty spot, following a pass from Mazraoui, liberated the Lions of the Atlas and the entire stadium.
At 26 years old, Brahim is confirming his importance in the Moroccan national team, now with 9 goals in 19 appearances. “There was a lot of pressure, but we managed to stay patient,” he said after the match. This performance perfectly kicks off his tournament and strengthens Morocco’s ambitions for the title.
