Watch adorable moment Morocco goalkeeper Yassine Bounou’s son mistakes mic for an ice cream in World Cup interview
THIS is the adorable moment the son of Morocco star Yassine Bounou mistakes a microphone for an ICE CREAM.
The hilarious incident occurred after Morocco’s famous quarter-final win over Portugal on Saturday, four days before their semi-final defeat to France on Wednesday.
Sevilla star Bounou, 31, produced a fine performance as he kept a clean sheet in the 1-0 victory over Cristiano Ronaldo’s side.
And he was accompanied by his son for interviews after the match.
But the kid had other ideas as Bounou gave his thoughts on the game.
As the interviewer asked questions, his son took an immediate liking to the purple foam of the mic.
The likely lad first gave it a prod with his finger.
And he then proceeded to have a bite of the microphone like it was an ice cream.
Bounou and the interviewer howled with laughter as the child giggled.
And he proceeded to go back in for a second try as Bounou squeezed his cheeks.

Fans certainly found the incident hilarious, with one saying: “Everything about this Moroccan team is touching, sincere, true.”
Another declared: “His son is so adorable.”
One laughed: “He thought it was a big ice cream.”
Another added: “The little guy doesn’t care, he is with his father, he feels at home, get him some ice cream.”
Bounou’s stock is now high after a fantastic World Cup, with Aston Villa and Wolves reportedly keen.
But reports in Spain claim he is now on Bayern Munich’s list as a replacement for Manuel Neuer, who broke his leg while skiing after Germany’s early World Cup exit.
