The Salvadoran scored his first goal of the season with Port, a bit that carries a special dedication … “Hello, Hugo Pérez?”
Nelson Bonilla reappeared as a Thai Port figure in the Thai League, scoring his first goal of the new season, in the match that ended in a draw against Bankong United, one of the former Salvadoran teams.
Bonilla scored in the 39th minute, so much so that he put his team ahead, so much so that he took the special dedication to his son, whom he expects to be born in a couple of months, in addition to the fact that he was celebrating his 31st birthday on Saturday.
The Salvadoran’s goal brought “the specialty of the house”, showing opportunism to take advantage of a center in which he anticipated his markers and defined in a sweep (37 ‘).

Unfortunately, the Port could not take advantage and four minutes later received the tie, which lasted until the end, despite the attempts that came in the second half, some of them generated by the Salvadoran.
This is Bonilla’s seventh goal with this team, six of which correspond to the previous season, where an injury kept him away for quite some time. He also had the same on the sidelines of the National Team, where he has been named a lot, after the first three games of the octagon where El Salvador is the only team that has not scored a goal.
The national coach, Hugo Pérez, mentioned, after the defeat against Canada (3-0), that Bonilla is in the plans for the next matches but that “it opened to see how things are in Thailand, by the Covid protocols, which which has complicated that journey, ”he said.
Meanwhile, the Salvadoran shows that he is in good shape, being a starter for the second consecutive game, in which he also ended up playing the 90 minutes.
