Khaberni - Moroccan star Ibrahim Diaz continues to shine at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, scoring for the third consecutive game in the continental tournament held in Morocco.
Diaz scored the second goal for the Moroccan team in the match against Zambia this Monday evening in the third and final round of Group A.
The Real Madrid player scored the second goal in the 27th minute, reinforcing the Atlas Lions' lead after Ayoub El Kaabi scored the first goal.
Diaz has moved to the top of the Africa Cup of Nations top scorers leaderboard, tied with Algerian Riyad Mahrez from Al-Ahli Saudi with 3 goals each.
The Real Madrid star has become a strong contender for the tournament's top scorer title, competing with Mahrez, Mohamed Salah from Liverpool and the Egyptian national team, and Tunisian Elias Al-Ashouri.
The Moroccan star has achieved a remarkable feat, matching the late Ahmed Faras as the only Moroccan player who scored in three consecutive matches at the Africa Cup of Nations in the 1976 edition.
Moroccan team star Ayoub El Kaabi has equaled his teammate Diaz after scoring twice against Zambia.
