The moment came right after Real Madrid’s 2-1 win over Manchester City at the Etihad, when Díaz approached the away fans to celebrate qualification in the UEFA Champions League.
It was there that Madrid supporters informed him of the unexpected development, that Morocco had been declared winners of the AFCON final by CAF.
Initially caught off guard, Diaz’s reaction quickly turned to joy. The news carries personal significance for the forward, as it would effectively erase the pain of his missed penalty in the final against Senegal.
