The regular and extra time of the match, which was held at the Radiant Jewel Stadium in Jeddah, ended in a 1-1 draw, and then Al-Hilal Saudi Arabia snatched the title after defeating Al-Nasr on penalties (4-5).
During the match, the Moroccan goalkeeper, who participated as a starter in the match, excelled, as he saved a chance to secure a goal for victory in the 43rd minute.
Bono received great encouragement from Al Hilal’s supporters, who consider him among the team’s most prominent stars contributing to achieving the local treble this season.
According to Opta Statistics and Figures, Bono blocked 5 out of 6 shots in the final, and Bono’s percentage of saving his goal against Al-Nasr’s attack was 83.3 percent, as Bono was behind decisive interventions and was a source of safety for Al-Hilal’s goal.
Bono and Ronaldo
Yacine Bounou outperformed Ronaldo in 7 matches out of a total of 8 previous matches. In addition, the Al Hilal goalkeeper kept a clean sheet against the top scorer in the Saudi League in 6 matches, and the “Don” did not score against his net in Saudi Arabia.
Thus, Bono became a “knot” for Ronaldo after he had previously caused the Portugal national team to be eliminated by Morocco in the quarter-finals of the Qatar 2022 World Cup under the watchful eyes of the “Madeira Missile.”
With this achievement, Yassin Bounou proves that he is among the best goalkeepers in the Saudi League, and strengthens his position as a decisive element in Al Hilal’s ranks.
