Morocco head coach Walid Regragui pointed to a single factor behind Brahim Diaz missing a penalty in the national team’s latest outing, insisting the moment should be viewed with calm rather than panic.
Regragui explained that Diaz’s lack of rhythm was the main reason the spot-kick was not converted, noting that the player has not had regular minutes recently and that this inevitably affects sharpness in decisive situations.
The Morocco coach stressed that the miss will not change the staff’s confidence in Diaz, adding that penalties are part of the game and that such moments happen even to the biggest names.
Regragui’s comments came as he reviewed the match and its key incidents, with the coach making it clear that he remains focused on improving performance and keeping the group ready for the challenges ahead.
