Yassine Bounou’s opening-day streak ends as Al-Hilal beat Al-Faisaly 4-2 | OneFootball

Al-Hilal opened their Roshn League season with a 4-2 win over Al-Faisaly, but Yassine Bounou’s opening-day clean-sheet streak ended.

As reported by Goal.com, the result was a bright start that also left defensive lessons to address.

The Moroccan started and conceded twice, his first time allowing two on matchday one since joining in summer 2023.

Before this, he had begun each of the previous three seasons with a shutout, beating Al-Raed 4-0, Al-Akhdood 3-0 and Al-Riyadh 2-0.

His importance to 'the Boss' remains clear, and the win still secured the first three points.

Even so, the goals that pierced his net point to corrections the back line and keeper will seek in the coming weeks.
