Mory Diaw has an atypical background. Trained at Paris-Saint-Germain before trying his luck in Portugal, Bulgaria and Switzerland, it is since last season under the colors of Clermont Foot that the giant (1 meter 97) never stops terrorizing the opposing attackers.
Opposed to Kylian Mbappé and his gang this Saturday (0-0), the thirty-year-old was once again talked about. Author of the impressive trifle of ten saves, he has just produced – against the most publicized team in Ligue 1 – the most accomplished performance of his career in the elite of French football. In comparison, Steve Mandanda, the legendary goalkeeper of Olympique de Marseille, was never able to make more than nine saves in a single match during his 14 seasons in the Marseille city. But don’t think that the doorman Senegalese is just a “tube”. Because since the start of the year, he has only confirmed all the good things that Ligue 1 observers thought of him when they discovered him last season: Mory Diaw has talent. A lot of talent. To the point of dethroning Edouard Mendy in the selection?
I hope Aliou Cissé was in front of the match. Otherwise you will have to show it to him in Replay. There needs to be a redistribution of cards at the goalkeeper position

Edouard Mendy in danger?
Today in Al-Ahli – where he is anyway in trouble – after experiencing the best and then the worst with Chelsea, the question of the legitimacy of the former Blues in the selection arises. A player playing in the Gulf and moreover without succeeding in showing his best side there, does he still deserve to be a starter in the cages of the national team? It will be up to Aliou Cissé, the Lions coach, to decide. If he chooses to sideline him, the name of Mory Diaw, a small selection on the clock but in the form of his life, will then be the first mentioned to replace him. So let’s see who will be on the field to face the
Cameroon in a friendly on October 17. If the Lions coach wishes to make a change at the goalkeeper position, it is unlikely that he will make it just before the CAN next January (except by force of circumstances). We could therefore quickly be fixed.
