Fatau Dauda's save voted 5th best save FIFA World Cup

FIFA has voted Ghana goalkeeper Fatau DaUda’s save against Portugal as the 5th best save so far in the on-going FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

27-year old DaUda put up a remarkable performance when the Black Stars took on Portugal in their final group game on June 26 in Brasilia where he pulled out some excellent saves against A Selecção.

The Ghana shot-stopper blocked a tremendous header from Portugal marksman Cristiano Ronaldo on the line in a game which saw the Black Stars losing 2-1 to Portugal.

Mexico’s Gulliemo Ochoa holds the top save so far at this year’s World Cup, followed by United States Tim Howard, with Argentina shot-stopper Sergio Romero occupying the third position. Nigeria goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama lie forth while Algeria’s Rais M’Bohli stays at the sixth position. Julio Ceaser of Brazil takes the seventh.
