Ronwen Williams, South Africa, goalkeeper
Four shots on goal saved out of five: against Cape Verde in the quarterfinals (0-0, 2-1 at the tab), the Mamelodi Sundowns goalkeeper (32 years old), briefly spent with Tottenham during his training before returning to the country , broke a world record. Never, in fact, has anyone until now achieved such a performance in a World Cup, a CAN, a Euro or a Copa America. A not so isolated feat in the middle of a great competition for Williams, who only conceded three goals in seven matches, ending with two new decisive saves during the penalty shootout of the match for 3rd place, won for Bafana Bafana against the DRC (0-0, 6-5 on the tab).
