Quick Answer

Who is Morocco's penalty taker?

Our final filed Morocco hierarchy had Brahim Diaz first, with Achraf Hakimi next in line.

Brahim Diaz is the clearest current Morocco primary. The deeper AFCON 2025 scan now strengthens rather than weakens that call: he took the March 2025 World Cup qualifying penalty against Tanzania, scored again from the spot against Mali at AFCON, and was then trusted with the huge late penalty in the AFCON final against Senegal ahead of Hakimi and the rest of Morocco's attack. The Panenka miss in that final was bad execution, not a hierarchy change. Hakimi remains the clearest challenger if the order shifts.

If you searched for Morocco penalty taker, the hierarchy at the top is the final tournament-cycle answer we filed. The evidence trail underneath shows why that order was published.

Evidence Trail

Why the board looks like this

1
25 Mar 2025: CAF match stats recorded Brahim Diaz scoring Morocco's penalty in the 2-0 win over Tanzania.
2
26 Dec 2025: Il Margine audit timeline shows Morocco again gave Brahim Diaz the penalty against Mali at AFCON and he converted it.
3
18 Jan 2026: CAF's AFCON final report shows Morocco again turned to Diaz for a huge late in-match penalty against Senegal, even though Edouard Mendy saved the Panenka attempt.
4
30 Jan 2024: Il Margine audit match timeline shows Achraf Hakimi took and missed Morocco's late penalty against South Africa at AFCON, which makes him the clearest alternative if the order changes.
5
Current working view: Diaz is Morocco's first-choice taker, and the AFCON final penalty actually strengthens that call because he was chosen for the biggest possible spot kick.
