Morocco’s ‘Bono’ linked to big clubs after World Cup heroics

 


Some memorable images were produced following Morocco's victory over Portugal to become the first African team to reach the World Cup semifinals: Youssef N-E S Y R-I leaping for the goal, S O F-I A-N-E BO U F-A L dancing with his mother on the touchline, manager's W-A L I-D R-G R-A G U-I and his players being hoisted, and Moroccan fans' unbridled joy in the stands


However, Portugal's persistent pursuit of an equalizer in the 84th minute was a crucial turning point that made possible these euphoric scenes.


Joao Felix was set up by Cristiano Ronaldo, and his left-footed curler seemed destined for Morocco's goal's upper corner. However, Yassine B O U N O had different plans. Felix looked disbelieving as the goalkeeper tipped the ball behind for a corner. Even though it was a fleeting moment, Moroccan football will remember it for decades.




At the World Cup in Qatar, one of his epic saves helped his team make history and put him in the spotlight worldwide. There are rumors that top European clubs, like Real Madrid and Manchester United, are interested in the Moroccan goalkeeper, who goes by the name Bono on his jersey.


He has the joint-best World Cup record of keeping three clean sheets, despite being shielded by an effective defense. In four games between the posts, he has only given up one goal, a feat that no African goalkeeper has ever accomplished before. His 90-minute goal rate of 0.23 is the lowest of this World Cup. He didn't play against Belgium, Morocco's first big upset of the tournament.


However, he played a key role in his team's round of 16 victory over Spain, saving all three penalty kicks

However, he played a key role in his team's round of 16 victory over Spain, saving all three penalty kicks.


Even though he is one of the World Cup's breakout stars, La Liga fans are familiar with his abilities. Thibaut, arguably the world's best goalkeeper, conceded five fewer goals last season than the Seville goalkeeper. He was named La Liga's best goalkeeper of the year for keeping 13 clean sheets

He, who was born in Montreal to Moroccan parents, was eligible to play for Canada and the Canadian manager even reached out to him in 2013. However, in the end, he decided to play for Morocco.


I was born in Morocco and spent my childhood there. In an interview with the Spanish television show prior to the World Cup, he stated, "I always dreamed of playing for the Atlas Lions."


While Moroccan fans must be appreciative of their heroes for him, Seville fans may have to part ways with him soon. The Andalusian team, where he is currently in his fourth year, will have to work hard to keep hold of him now that he has begun to attract the attention of elite European teams.


He might be the answer for teams that haven't found what they're looking for between the posts
