Another bench appearance
Rahimi recorded no stats in Thursday's 2-0 defeat to France.
Analysis: Rahimi appeared from the bench at forward once again for Morocco, not given the start despite being expected to, with Ismael Saibari (hamstring) out. He would still play 28 minutes but was unable to do a whole lot, recording only three passes and no shots. All six of his appearances this World Cup came from the bench, notching two goals and one assist in 157 minutes of play.
Scores off bench Saturday
Rahimi scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-0 win versus Canada.
Analysis: Rahimi found the back of the net in the dying moments of the match, taking advantage of a through ball from Brahim Diaz to close out the scoring. Despite being a substitute in each of his five appearances in the World Cup, Rahimi has two goals and one assist. He'd be the first option to start upfront in the quarterfinals if Ismael Saibari (hamstring) isn't fit to play in the next round.
