More fear than harm for Yassine Bounou. After being hit several times during the match against Brazil, particularly with apparent pain in his ankle and then his shoulder, the Moroccan goalkeeper seems to have reassured the staff of the Atlas Lions.
Present in the training group, the Moroccan last line of defense appears ready to hold his position for the remainder of the World Cup. His attitude during today’s session sent a positive signal, as some concerns had arisen after a physically demanding match.
Against Brazil, Bounou once again stepped up in a match played at high intensity. The minor alerts observed during the game seem to be more related to knocks received in the flow of the match than to any real medical issue.
With just a few days to go before the clash against Scotland, Morocco can breathe a sigh of relief. Unless there is an unpleasant surprise, Yassine Bounou should be fit to defend the Moroccan goal, which is excellent news for the Atlas Lions and their staff.
