Morocco midfielder Ismael Saibari has achieved a rare feat at the FIFA World Cup.
Details: According to Opta, Saibari has become only the second African footballer ever to score in each of his first two World Cup appearances.
Previously, this achievement among African players had only been matched by Mohamed Salah of Egypt.
For Saibari, this tournament debut has been especially dazzling: he's quickly emerged as one of Morocco's standout stars on the world stage.
Opta summed up the achievement in a single word - “Stage” - highlighting how the player has announced himself on football’s biggest platform.
Now Saibari will continue his campaign for Morocco, carrying the status of a player who has already made World Cup history.
