World Cup 2026 is complete. This page preserves the final hierarchy filed on 3 June 2026 and the evidence available at that point. Verified tournament penalty outcomes will be added as a separate audit layer rather than rewritten into the original call.

Morocco penalty taker
Our final filed Morocco hierarchy for World Cup 2026 had Brahim Diaz first, with Achraf Hakimi as the closest backup.
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.

Why the board looks like this
Internal hierarchy checks
We keep the public archive focused on the filed primary, closest backup and the match evidence that shaped the hierarchy.
The internal file stays broader so we can re-check squad context, event timing and backup pressure without turning the page into a raw research appendix.
