Ilha Brava mourns Beyona, one of the greatest athletes of her time and a human being like no other
With deep sadness we received the news of the passing of Beyona, an extraordinary player from the 1990s and 2000s, who left an indelible mark on the Brava fields. Beyona, whose first steps were taken in the Zona team (Gambia), aroused the interest of Académica, where she shone brightly. His career was marked by successful spells for teams such as Nô Pintcha and Morabeza, in addition to standing out as an undisputed starter in the Brava team.
One of the moments Beyona's most memorable was in the final of the Brazilian championship between Nô Pintcha and Benfica de Nossa Senhora do Monte, where, after Nô Pintcha was losing by one goal to zero, he scored five decisive goals, guaranteeing the title for his team. Known for his spectacular skill, unstoppable speed and refined technique, Beyona was feared as one of the most talented wingers in the league.
In addition to her talent on the football field, Beyona also excelled in futsal, showing exceptional versatility and skill. His time with several teams and his contribution to the sport will be remembered as an integral part of Brava's sporting history.
Today, we deeply mourn the loss of not only a great athlete, but an exemplary human being. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and all those who had the privilege of watching and living with him. May Beyona rest in peace, as her memory will endure as a symbol of resistance and perseverance.
Desporto Brava bringing you the best of sport.
