Tiktukno: summary of today's events in sports, 11.27 (Sport1)
You don't see something like this every day.
The goalkeeper of the Moroccan national team, Yassin Bono, was supposed to start the game against Belgium and even stood with his teammates in the national anthems, but for an undisclosed reason, he was removed from the 11 just before the opening whistle.
His replacement, Munir Mohammadi, was already in the group photo.
They tweeted that broadcasters in many languages in the world did not notice the late change and called Mohammadi "Bono".
At the BBC, for example, they complimented Bono in the opening minutes, even though he wasn't there at all.
In Israel as well, Amichai Spiegler was only informed in the 25th minute area that the Sevilla goalkeeper was removed from the Moroccan team.
Many wondered what happened to Bono and the Moroccan FA did not release a clarification, but it seems he was not feeling well and therefore did not start in the end.
Bono is of course one of the senior players in Morocco's squad.

In Morocco, they hope that Bono will be able to play in the final round of Group 6, against Canada.
