Moroccan Star Boufal Leads Celta Vigo to Victory with Goal and Assist Against Girona

21 April 2019 – bySaid@Bladi · 1 min read

He is gaining momentum game after game. Moroccan international Sofiane Boufal has just once again put in a flawless performance yesterday against the Gérone team, in a La Liga match.

The former Lille player scored yesterday the winning goal for Celta Vigo, 2-1. He also provided the assist for his team’s first goal.

With this goal, Boufal currently has three goals since his departure from Southampton, very few to be sure, but that does not prevent him from being one of the best dribblers in the Spanish championship, surpassing, hold on tight, Lionel Messi. This is not what Moroccans say but the match statistics compiled by the reputable Spanish newspaper Marca.

It should be noted that Sofiane Boufal has recently returned to the Atlas Lions and it would be more than surprising if he is not part of the squad selected by Hervé Renard for the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.
