It’s a bittersweet ending for Nadir Lamyaghri, the 36-year-old goalkeeper for Morocco, as he played his last match for the national team. The draw against South Africa in the African Cup of Nations (CAN) group stage (2-2) led to Morocco’s elimination from the tournament.
Lamyaghri, aware that his international career was coming to an end, likely hoped for a better outcome in his final campaign with the Atlas Lions. Unfortunately, the team fell short of securing the victory needed to advance to the next stage of the competition.
While the result might not have fulfilled his aspirations for a successful farewell, Lamyaghri’s contributions to Moroccan football over the years will likely be remembered. The decision to retire from international duty is a significant moment for any player, and Lamyaghri’s journey with the national team has come to a close.
