Senegalese goalkeeper Édouard Mendy recently shared the three most impactful matches of his career, with his performances for the Senegal national football team featuring prominently. He identified the finals of the 2021 and 2025 Africa Cup of Nations CAN as his top two most memorable moments. The CAN 2021 final, where Senegal defeated the Egypt national football team in a penalty shootout to secure their first continental title, ranks as his most significant. The CAN 2025 final, in which the Lions triumphed 1-0 against the host nation, the Morocco national football team, is his second choice. Mendy, a former Chelsea F.C. player and 2021 UEFA Champions League winner, also included the 2025 AFC Champions League final, which he won 2-0 with Al-Ahli Saudi FC against Kawasaki Frontale, as his third most significant career moment. He discussed these memories during an interview on TheMoShowPod podcast, stating that the Champions League final in Jeddah with the fans was incredible and part of his top three, but the two CAN finals held the top spots.
