Vincent Enyeama has been impressive between the sticks for Nigeria at the ongoing 2014 Fifa World Cup finals in Brazil.
His last minute save to deny Edin Dzeko a sure goal as Nigeria beat Bosnia-Herzegovina 1-0 in a Group F game on Sunday is probably his finest moment so far in Brazil.
That moment of sheer genius is however just one of many so far provided by the goalkeeper who is currently ranked as the best of all shot-stoppers currently in Brazil by Fifa.
The 31-year-old is currently ranked as Africa’s best player at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil with 9.59 points in the latest Castrol Index Top 10 rankings released by the World football governing body.
Only Karim Benzema (9.77), Robin Van Persie (9.72), Arjen Robben (9.67) and David Luiz (9.63) have amassed more ranking points than the Nigerian shot-stopper.
