Real Madrid star Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 has expressed deep concern for his Moroccan friend Achraf Hakimi and teammate Brahim D\u00edaz following the Atlas Lions\u2019 1\u20130 defeat to Senegal in the AFCON 2025 final.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a press conference on Monday, the French captain addressed the dramatic end to the tournament, focusing in particular on the mental state of his club teammate Brahim D\u00edaz after his missed Panenka penalty proved decisive.<\/p>\n
Mbapp\u00e9 revealed that he spent \u201chalf the night\u201d on the phone with his close friend Achraf Hakimi to process the chaotic events of the final. However, his attention quickly turned to Diaz, the tournament\u2019s top scorer, who is facing intense scrutiny and backlash from fans after his attempted chip was saved by Senegalese goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.<\/p>\n

Drawing on his own painful experience of missing a decisive penalty against Switzerland at Euro 2020, Mbapp\u00e9 offered empathetic support. \u201cI sent him a message, but I haven\u2019t reached him yet. I think he must be sad,\u201d Mbapp\u00e9 said. \u201cIt\u2019s difficult, I completely understand how he must be feeling right now. Of course, he will feel disappointment and anger. The Moroccan people have been waiting for this for years and were so close. This is the life of a footballer.\u201d<\/p>\n
Looking ahead to Diaz\u2019s return to Spain, Mbapp\u00e9 insisted that the Real Madrid squad has a responsibility to protect their teammate. \u201cWe will have to help him when he comes back here to Madrid,\u201d he declared. \u201cBefore even thinking about football, we have to think about the person. He must be in a terrible state right now, and our goal will be to recover him as a person. We will be there for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
