Morocco defeated Tanzania 2-0 in their World Cup qualifying match on Tuesday.
Against the East African team, Noussair Mazraoui of Manchester United began at right-back and displayed his class with an outstanding all-around performance.
With 102 touches, the 27-year-old had a 96 percent passing accuracy rate. In addition to completing four dribbles and 100% of his tackles, he won seven duels.
Sofascore gave Mazraoui an 8 out of 10 for his performance, and United supporters will be hoping he can do the same for the Red Devils in the coming months.
The former player for Bayern Munich has been an excellent addition. Under manager Ruben Amorim, he has been a consistent right wing-back despite starting as a right-back with the Red Devils.
Both the left and right sides of the central defense have seen Mazraoui’s actions. The £27 million star has also started from left wing-back on several occasions, switching positions with Diogo Dalot.
Amorim will probably use Mazraoui in his three-man backline for the remainder of the season now that Patrick Dorgu is back from his three-game league suspension.
With 37 points, United is now ranked 13th in the Premier League. With each position’s growing TV revenue, the goal should be to finish as high as feasible.
It is anticipated that Amorim will give the Europa League more attention. A Champions League berth is guaranteed by winning the competition, and this might play a significant role this summer.
United would be able to draw in more well-known players if they qualified for the top European competition. Given the large rise in revenue, the transfer budget might be larger.
United’s next league encounter is on the road at Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night. The team will want to exact revenge for the December 3-2 loss at Old Trafford.
