Bono takes long and winding road to Morocco stardom

Yassine Bono has learned to be patient in his career, but the Morocco goalkeeper with a show-stopping nickname is proving he more than belongs on the big stage.

An unused squad member at the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations and the 2018 World Cup in Russia, Bounou - or "Bono" as the name on his shirt reads - has played a fundamental part in helping Morocco set a new benchmark for African football in Qatar. With 14 foreign-born players in the squad, it has been a case of unity in diversity for Morocco.

Bounou kept 2018 runners-up Croatia at bay in their opener. He suddenly disappeared just before kick-off in a 2-0 win over Belgium, having lined up with the team for the national anthems. Replaced by Munir El Kajoui, coach Walid Regragui later cleared up the mystery by explaining Bounou had felt unwell after sustaining a knock against Croatia.
