It took more than an honorary top scorer trophy to mask his crestfallen expression.
Brahim Diaz dragged on all his painSunday evening, after a CAN final in which he was the protagonist against his will. Author of a failed panenka, the Real Madrid player missed the opportunity to give his team victory. However, he accepts his action, confirming that it was voluntary.
“I failed yesterday (Sunday) and I take full responsibility for it. I offer my most sincere apologies.”regretted Brahim Diaz in a long message published on his Instagram account this Monday, while conceding that this wound would be difficult to heal over time.
“This wound does not heal easily”
“I am heartbroken. I dreamed of this title thanks to all your love, each message, each testimony of support made me feel that I was not alone. I fought with all my strength, with my heart above all. I failed yesterday and I take full responsibility for it. I offer my most sincere apologies.
It will be difficult for me to recover from this, because this wound does not heal easily… but I will try. Not for me, but for all those who believed in me and for all those who suffered with me. I will continue to move forward until the day I can return all this love to you and become a source of pride for my Moroccan people. »
