Noussair Mazraoui scores solo goal in Morocco's victory over Gabon

Noussair Mazraoui scored a solo goal in the 36th minute as Morocco defeated Gabon 2-0 in their African Cup of Nations qualifying opener. The Manchester United full-back, usually a right-back, was fielded at left-back, allowing him to excel despite Diogo Dalot's established role at United. Mazraoui's versatility has become crucial for both club and country, particularly with Michael Carrick short of options in the left-back position. This performance may influence Carrick to utilize Mazraoui more frequently in challenging situations going forward.
