Brahim Diaz made his presence known at the CAF Africa Cup of Nations event in a strong way, netting the first goal as Morocco, the host nation, began their AFCON Morocco 2025 journey with a self-assured 2-0 win against Comoros on Sunday in Rabat.
With a lively local audience cheering, Diaz played a central role in Morocco's offensive efforts.
His pivotal goal not only relieved initial tension for the Atlas Lions, but also sparked joy throughout the stadium and across the hosting country as the home team secured control of their first game.
The star player of the Atlas Lions received the TotalEnergies Player of the Match award and expressed honestly his strong feeling of connection whenever playing for Morocco.
"I am comfortable here. I truly enjoy myself and know that they care for me," Diaz stated.
I wish to do my utmost while standing up for Morocco, as without their support I wouldn't be here or playing soccer. I'm truly delighted to be present and put everything into serving my homeland.
The words were evident on the field. Continuously seeking possession of the ball and pushing forward against the Comoros defense.
Diaz's triumph on Sunday has boosted the home team's confidence, placing them in a strong position as they lead an anticipated thrilling contest in Group A.
Following this, Morocco will face off against Mali on December 26th, whereas Comoros aims to recover and perform better against Zambia, the winners from 2012, on December 29th.
