Morocco goalkeeper, Yassine Bounou has hailed Super Eagles players for putting in a ‘very strong performance’ against his team during both sides’ AFCON semi-final tie on Wednesday.
Bounou was the man-of-the-match as the 34-year-old made two saves during the penalty shoot-out after the match ended in a goalless draw at Stade Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium.
The Al-Hilal shot-stopper saved both Samuel Chukwueze and Bruno Onyemaechi’s penalty kicks as the Atlas Lions won 4-2.
Speaking at his post-match interview after the game, Bounou said, “The atmosphere during the match was wonderful.
“I thank all the fans who supported us. The players did what was required in a match that wasn’t easy at all, and the opponent delivered a very strong performance.
I would like to thank the coach, Walid Regragui, who prepared us very well for this semifinal match, and I also thank all my teammates.”
Bounou will now hope to lead Morocco to victory when they face Senegal in the AFCON final this weekend.
Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
