Brahim Diaz scored for the fifth game in a row at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations AFCON as hosts Morocco defeated Cameroon 2-0 in their quarter-final clash last night to keep alive their hopes of a first continental title in 50 years.
Diaz has now scored in each of Moroccos five games and extends his own record for most goals by a Moroccan at a single AFCON final. Morocco, who have yet to concede a goal in open play at the finals, will face the winner of Saturdays third quarter-final between Algeria and Nigeria in the next round.
Meanwhile, Iliman Ndiaye scored the only goal as Senegal beat 10-man Mali 1-0 to book a semi-final berth at the AFCON for the third time in the last four tournaments.
