Brahim Diaz once again delivered for Morocco in a tough quarter-final clash against Cameroon. The Atlas Lions clinched a 2-0 victory, thanks in large part to the performance of the Real Madrid midfielder.

Five matches, five goals—that's Brahim Diaz's remarkable tally in this CAN 2025. It's become almost routine to see the young attacking midfielder find the back of the net in every game of the tournament.

Walid Regragui can only be pleased with his protégé's performance, as Diaz set the tone for his teammates by redirecting an Ayoub El Kaabi header into the net in the 26th minute.

With Diaz on the pitch, Morocco has never experienced defeat. He truly is a lucky charm for his side, boasting a record of 18 wins and 2 draws.
