    FIFA World Cup 2018: Who will win the Golden Glove?

    Goal-keepers are often the most vital players, especially when it comes to knock-outs of World Cup. If you look at Spain vs Russia or Croatia vs Denmark, you will know why. From the group stage till the business end of the tournament, the custodian who puts in a commendable shift, will win the Golden Glove award. Here are the top contenders for this prize.

    Croatia's Danijel Subasic has been top class

    Croatia's number one custodian Danijel Subasic became a hero overnight after making three saves in the penalty shoot-out against Denmark in the round of 16. Croatia will face Russia next and based on their defensive qualities, they have a real chance to go further. Subasic has two clean sheets in four games, besides making a handful of saves and conceding only two goals.

    Russia's Igor Akinfeev could put in the show

    Russia's Igor Akinfeev is having a dream campaign till now. He was exceptional against Spain, saving two penalties in the shoot-out besides making 9 saves in 120 minutes. He has conceded five goals in four games. Further, he has one clean sheet to his name. Akinfeev is already a Russian hero. He can, once again, stake his claim to the award in the quarters.

    Brazil's Alisson is a powerful contender

    The final contender, we go with, is Brazil's Alisson Becker. France's Hugo Lloris gives a strong fight, but the Roma goalie is in superb form. In four games so far, he has conceded just one goal and has three clean sheets under his belt. Alisson gives 5- time World Cup champions Brazil, the extra edge required in high pressure fixtures.
