Has Elling Holan ever shown this attitude after losing the game.
Manchester City was eliminated from the tournament on the 1st (Korea time) with a shock loss of 3 to 4 in the round of 16 of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup against Al Hilal at Camping World Stadium in Orlando.
The player who led Manchester City to elimination on the day was Yasin Bunu, whose name includes 'Yashin'. Bunu is from La Liga, Spain. Played for Atletico Madrid, Real Zaragoza, Girona and Sevilla. He played outstandingly in Seville and won the Europa League (UEL) twice. In the 2021-2022 season, Spain's La Liga was selected as the team of the year, so it goes without saying that he is a player. Bunu wore an al-Hilal uniform in 2023.
Bunu played his life against Man City. Three goals lost, but no arrows go back to Bunu. In the 24th minute of the first half, in a one-on-one chance that Holan created for Savinho, Bunu blew off Savinho's shot and blocked it. In the 29th minute of the first half, Ilkay Gündogan's one-on-one chance was also lightly blocked. If it had already lost to Manchester City and gave up additional points, the flow could have been crossed, but Bunu's good defense made Manchester City's flow not lead to a score.
When Bunu's good defense didn't tilt the game too far to one side, Al Hilal started fighting back. Marcos Leonardo's equalizer in the first minute of the second half and Malcolm's come-from-behind goal in the seventh minute of the second half made Al Hilal turn the tables. Bunu lost a point to Holan on a corner kick in the 10th minute of the second half, but it was an unstoppable shot.
Bunu's performance sent the game to extra time, with Al Hilal completing the club's World Cup best surprise with a run-away goal from Kalidou Koulibaly and a winning goal from Leonardo. Manchester City recorded 14 shots on the day, but Bunu blocked as many as 10 shots. In contrast, Manchester City's Ederson was the main cause of the defeat with his disappointing defense.
After the match, England's Sportsbible appeared to tell Al Hilal's goalkeeper Bunu to come to Manchester City after his performance at the Club World Cup. Bunu made a remarkable save from Sabinho's shot in the match, with a total of 10 saves as Al Hilal struggled against Manchester City. The Moroccan Bunu once again showed his true worth' he said.
It's the first time Holan has shown this kind of respect to his opponent after the game. In fact, Manchester City are trying to recruit a goalkeeper this summer. This is because Ederson's declining performance is a problem. Ederson was also a problem in this game.
