SLIEMA Wanderers' Younes Marzouk
is the BOV Player of the Month for
March 2019.
Marzouk is described as very skillful
with the ball and not clumsy in front
of goal. He has the profile of a modern
striker, able to play both as a striker
advanced than that of playmaker.
The French born player on loan
from FC Lugano made his mark in the
Sliema ranks especially during March
where he scored 4 of his 8 goals in-
cluding a very important one against
league contenders Hibernians.
Leading 1-0 against Hibernians, Mar-
zouk received the ball from a short
corner on the 41st minute and let fly
an audacious cross-shot that finished
behind a clueless Jovicic.
In Sliema's previous match against
Mosta, Marzouk was the protagonist
scoring 2 or Sliema's 3 goals, heading
in his first and hitting a rising shot past
a helpless Vella en-route to a 3-1 win.
Marzouk also put his name on the
scoresheet against Hamrun, hitting a
scorcher in a match where he was also
voted Player of the Match.

Marketing presented the BOV Player
