This man stopped not one but two penalty shootouts to reach World Cup quarter-finals
Players are mostly anticipated to score from the spot or via penalty kicks
But history states that even some of the greatest players of all time have missed spot kicks
At this FIFA World Cup, some of the missed penalty kicks have become part of folklore
Who can forget Michel Platini's miss against Brazil in the 1986 World Cup quarter-finals
No one blames goalkeepers if the goal is scored in a penalty but if the goalkeeper stops any of the penalties, they are regarded as heroes.
Now think of Yassine Bounou who stopped not one but two penalty kicks as Morocco stunned Spain in a penalty shootout to reach the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time in their history
After 120 minutes without a goal at Education City Stadium, Spain failed to score a single spot-kick as Bounou saved two and Pablo Sarabia hit the post.
He was born in Montreal, Canada
The tall keeper also played for the Morocco under-23 team at the 2012 Olympics.
At the club level, Bounou plays for Sevilla in Spain and won the UEFA Europa League in 2020 beating Inter Milan 3-2 in the final.
