Moroccan international Noussair Mazraoui was lined up from the start by Manchester United interim coach Ruud van Nistelrooy during the duel against Chelsea counting for the 10th day of the Premier League.
This summit meeting ended in a 1-1 draw, to the great dismay of the Red Devils who were hoping to continue after their last victory against West Ham (2-1), while awaiting the arrival on the bench of the Portuguese Ruben Amorim.
But in the meantime, one player particularly stood out during this meeting. Noussair Mazraoui was in the oven and in the mill, evolving on several fronts.
«This man»
Mazraoui indeed delivered a great performance, worthy of a very high level player who was expected to turn the corner after his many physical problems. Holding his position well in defense, he was also at the origin of dangerous actions for his club in addition to being sharp in his interventions and his passes.
And it was grateful that Manchester United paid tribute to him on their social networks, highlighting his most remarkable performance. “This man”, was the headline in a message accompanied by an image of the Atlas Lion.
Having missed the last matches of the national team against the Central African Republic in Oujda, in the CAN 2025 qualifiers (5-0 and 4-0 victories), Noussair Mazraoui has definitively reassured about his state of health.
Very good news for national coach Walid Regragui who is preparing to announce his list for the next matches against Gabon (November 15 in Franceville) and Lesotho (November 18 in Oujda).
