The Senegalese goalkeeper stood out in the Rushen League
The Senegalese “Al Ahli” goalkeeper Edouard Mendy took the “Golden Glove” from the Moroccan Yassin Bounu, the “Al Hilal” goalkeeper, after the end of the last season of the Roshen League of Saudi Arabia.
The curtain came down on the Saudi Roshan League yesterday, Thursday, when Al-Nasr Club won the title for the first time in 7 years, at the expense of arch-rivals Al-Hilal, who lost the competition for the second season in a row.
24 hours after the end of the season, the Saudi Arabian League announced that Mendy was crowned with the “Golden Glove” award as the best goalkeeper of the previous season of the league.
Mandy won the award, although she tied with Bono for the most clean sheets In the last season of Rushen League, each of them participated in 14 matches out of 26.
The two goalkeepers are also tied for the number of goals scored for the season as both have made 46 saves in 26 games, nearly two saves per game, including one penalty by Mendy.
However, the Senegalese keeper excelled in another matter, which was the number of goals conceded, as Mendy conceded 18 goals to the Moroccan keeper’s 20.
It is noteworthy that the conflict between Bono and Mendy started during the Africa Cup of Nations held in Morocco in December and January of last year, where the Moroccan goalkeeper won the “Golden Glove” award at the expense of his Senegalese colleague.
