Episode 3191: Alisson Reigns Supreme At The Parc Des Princes

The last four winners of the FIFA Best Goalkeeper award:

2024 Emiliano Martinez
2023 Ederson
2022 Emiliano Martinez
2021 Edouard Mendy

Make it make sense… Alisson Becker has previously won this award in 2019, but his performance in Paris as he saved Liverpool from what would surely have been a brutal beating might just tear the 2025 award out of Martinez’s hands.

Miguel Delaney and Gavin Cooney join us to talk about an astonishing night at the Parc des Princes.
