Sevilla goalkeeper Yassine Bono spoke about the Europa League final against Roma (1-1, 4-1 penalty shootout). The Moroccan national team goalkeeper saved two penalties in the penalty shootout.
“When you have a goal, it doesn’t matter how long you have to play. We also played 120 minutes against Juventus. Unbelievably, the guys kept running.
I've had a lot of penalty situations like this, and I understood that I just had to stay very calm to face them. My teammates also give me a lot of calm and confidence. I congratulate all the guys and all of Sevilla. This year has been full of emotions, between the World Cup and the day of this final. Sometimes you don't really analyse what's happening.
It's an incredible feeling to win the Europa League. This trophy means a lot to the club and the fans. To be part of this historic success is a great pride. As a goalkeeper, being able to contribute to the victory by stopping penalties is very satisfying.
The team showed incredible determination and resilience to overcome a tough opponent like Roma. We knew it would be a tough match, but the players never gave up and fought until the end. This victory is a testament to the spirit and unity of this Seville team.
Personally, I am delighted to have added another European title to my CV. It will give me even more confidence and motivation to continue performing at the highest level, both for my club and the Moroccan national team. I am grateful for the support of the fans and the confidence placed in me by the coaching staff. It is a special moment that I will always cherish.
