Histórico Yassine Bono
Yassine Bono is a complete goalkeeper with very good ball handling and on Saturday it showed. Minute 93 and 10 seconds, corner in favour of Sevilla FC. The referee gives four minutes injury time. The game is practically over. Bono has gone up for the finish. It's taken, the ball goes a bit wide on the edge of the six-yard box and De Jong puts it back across goal. It comes to Oscar, who half-heartedly and close to the by-line tries to put it back in for his team-mates. The ball slowly drifted over the back line towards the post. Two Valladolid players, instead of taking off for a corner, waited for the ball to come out, but there was the clever En-Nesyri to put it back into the box, towards the penalty spot.
Kounde in his attempt to get to the ball makes a perfect assist to his goalkeeper. Far from getting flustered, he placed his body perfectly to connect with a left-footed shot that slipped through several players from both teams and saved a point for his team.
The Moroccan goalkeeper is reaching new heights every day. Yassine led the team to the Europa League title with decisive saves. Since then he has been a permanent fixture in Julen Lopetegui's eleven.
Many attribute Sevilla's Copa del Rey elimination against FC Barcelona to the absence of Yassine Bono, the "match-saving" goalkeeper.
This is not the first article that Bono has featured in Atalayar in the last few months. He seems to be in a good mood and everything goes well for him under the sticks. Sevilla's defence is the second lowest-scoring in the league and Yassine Bono is largely to blame.
As we mentioned in February, he is one of the architects of the fact that Sevilla are all the rage in Morocco, along with Munir and En-Nesyri.
The social networks have also echoed his performance, with jocular messages such as: "Bono is already one goal away from equalling Hazard in the fight for the pichichi", "Bono one chance one goal, Vinícius 1,000 chances and a lot of health", "Bono has scored more goals than Vitolo".
Yassine Bono will continue to amaze us, he is very young, 29 years old, for a goalkeeper and, as his coaches at Atlético de Madrid and Gerona say, he has a "well-furnished head", he is very intelligent and professional.
