It was a moment that will haunt Brahim Diaz for years to come. Diaz's penalty turned out to be the last kick of normal time. Former Nigeria forward Daniel Amokachi added: "Brahim Diaz threw away all of his glorious moments, scoring five goals in this tournament." And ex-Nigeria midfielder Jon Obi Mikel said the miss "spoils everything Brahim Diaz has done well in this tournament". Efan Ekoku, another former Nigeria international, said: "It is a moment Brahim Diaz will never get over."
