Brahim Díaz Impresses in Debut as Morocco Defeats Angola in Friendly Match
Morocco‘s rising star Brahim Díaz made a remarkable debut in the friendly match against Angola, showcasing his talent with a goal that secured a narrow victory for the Atlas Lions. Le360 highlighted Díaz’s stellar performance, alongside AS Monaco‘s Eliesse Ben Seguir, as they injected new energy into the team.
The Atlas Lions displayed a formidable offensive game against Angola, outplaying their opponent despite a well-organized defense. Medias24 noted the successful debuts of Díaz and Ben Seguir, as well as the impressive showing of Soufiane Rahimi in the match.
Díaz, donning the number 10 jersey, played a significant role in the game until the 86th minute, contributing to Morocco’s pursuit of redemption following their disappointing Africa Cup performance. The team, led by Díaz and Ben Seguir, dominated possession and created multiple goal-scoring opportunities against Angola.
Despite their control of the match with 72% possession and numerous shots on goal, Morocco struggled with converting opportunities into goals, with only one finding the net due to a touch by Angola’s David Carno. The Lions’ efficiency in front of goal remains a work in progress despite the positive start.
Having been eliminated in the round of 16 in the Africa Cup, Morocco’s victory over Angola serves as a promising beginning for Díaz’s international career. Hespress praised the impact of the Real Madrid player, highlighting his resilience in the face of challenges and his ability to support his teammates throughout the match.
