saibari psv put Marokko ahead against Brazil in the first half with a lob over Alisson. Brahim Diaz opened the move with one pass, and Saibari lifted it between Gabriel and Marquinhos to finish it.
Brazil answered before halftime through Vini Jr, who drove a shot into the far corner. The scoreline flipped from a Marokko lead to level, but the first-half edge in play still sat with Marokko.
Brahim Diaz Opens the Lane
Diaz played the pass that broke the Brazilian shape and gave Saibari the space to strike. He did not need a long run-up or a second touch to make the chance count.
The finish was precise. Saibari floated the ball over Alisson from between Gabriel and Marquinhos, and that touch put Marokko in front in a match that had already taken shape as a sharp test for Brazil.
Marokko Sets the Tempo
The first half belonged to Marokko in the way the match was described: the side showed the best football before the break. Hakimi had a free-kick chance too, but his effort went weakly wide.
That sequence left Brazil chasing more than the score. Casemiro picked up the first Brazilian yellow card, and Ibanez later took the second card of the match as the half moved toward the interval.
Brazil Responds Before Half Time
Vini Jr’s equalizer kept Brazil alive in a match played without Neymar. The response came with a shot into the far corner, which erased Saibari’s opener but did not change the fact that Marokko had started more sharply.
The game was being followed via livestream or on VRT1 from 23.40 uur, and it had the edge of a major international contest from the opening half. For Saibari, the opener was the moment that put his name on the game before Brazil found its reply.
