Score again versus Scotland
Saibari recorded one goal on two shots (one on target) in Friday's 1-0 win over Scotland.
Analysis: Saibari recorded some history Friday when he gave Morocco the lead, scoring in the second minute to be the first player to score in consecutive games in their two first-ever World Cup appearances. This comes after he also netted a goal against Brazil, the main reason Morocco has four points. He is now with five shots through two games and should maintain a starting role when facing Haiti in their group stage finale.
Scores beautiful goal Saturday
Saibari scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Brazil.
Analysis: Saibari took advantage of a perfect through ball from Brahim Diaz to break the deadlock for Morocco with a chipped shot. The PSV Eindhoven forward scored three goals in seven Champions League appearances with the Dutch club in the 2025/26 season, and it wouldn't be surprising if he continues to lead the line against Scotland on June 19.
Set for big role with Morocco
Saibari should play a big role as one of Morocco's main playmaking threats in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Analysis: Saibari is widely expected to play a big role as one of Morocco's primary creative threats alongside Brahim Diaz. The talented playmaker is coming off an excellent season with PSV Eindhoven in 2025/26, notching 18 goals and eight assists across 34 appearances between the Eredivisie and the UEFA Champions League.
