Goal keepers are judged by the number of clean sheets they produce in tournaments. Mendy had 5 out of 6! That's a massive advantage over other goal keepers in the tournament. That's why he won the award for best goal keeper of the tournament.



Mendy is FIFA best goal keeper and he is from Africa. So CAF which is under FIFA felt that someone who is best in the world is actually the best in his continent.


That is why they gave him the award which they called "continental best goal keeper"


Remember that FIFA president was around, so CAF must do everything to please him.


Also Edourd Mendy actually merit the award after his penalty save helped Senegal to win the trophy.

Gabaski was outstanding, but his efforts did not make Egypt win the trophy, so he can't actually be the best.

The focus is on the person whose efforts landed his team the trophy and the person is Mendy.

So CAF knows what it's doing. Before we think of the impressive performance of Gabaski, CAF already thought of it but by their wisdom, they gave him the man of the match but not the best goalkeeper because he didn't help Egypt win the tournament.

He didn't start the tournament with the team but came in as a substitute and was at a point also substituted.


So he cannot really be the best in the wisdom of CAF.


Don't forget that CAF also has wise people the same way those people who are posting online believe they are wise.[/quote]
