Mohammed El-Shennawy, Egypt's goalkeeper, was an absolute protagonist in the challenge to Uruguay, where he made countless expectations towards his opponent and helped his team lose with only one goal, which came at the last minute of the match.
Fans and panel of specialists voted for just Egyptian goalkeeper like “Man of the top”, or “matchman”, but Mohammed El-Shenawy refused to go get the symbolic price.
This is because this award is sponsored by the American liquor producer Budweiser and includes a bottle of beer. The Egyptian porter refused to receive the prize for religious motives but here FIFA was not found unprepared after deciding to remove the beer bottle and censor the logo of the American company, so that El-Shennaway could approach the ceremony.
FIFA reportedly calculated this detail earlier, since other Islamic states, such as Tunisia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc., are also part of the world. de
