Winner at his third attempt

He got two consecutive second places (behind his teammate Mohamed Salah) at 2017 and 2018, but this time the 27-year-old striker is deservedly first: Sadio Mane finally is the best footballer for 2019 on the African continent. It is also the second time where Senegal had a winner in the most important category, after El Hadji Diouf succeed to win this prize in 2001.
Nine other types of awards were also given seven nights ago in Hurghada at this ceremony. Most interesting ones are that Asisat Oshoala (Nigeria) is the best female footballer, while the confederation mostly likes the 4-3-3 formation.
