The Best FIFA Women’s Goalkeeper

Winner: Alyssa Naeher (26 points) Second: Cata Coll (22 points) Third: Mary Earps (11 points)

USA goalkeeper Naeher unsurprisingly received the support of her captain Lindsey Horan and coach Emma Hayes in the voting.

The Best FIFA Men’s Coach

Winner: Carlo Ancelotti (26 points) Second: Xabi Alonso (22 points) Third: Luis de la Fuente (11 points)

Given the silverware he has gathered throughout a stellar career, it could cause a raised eyebrow that this is the first time which Ancelotti has been honoured as The Best FIFA Men’s Coach. Italy captain Gianluigi Donnarumma had his compatriot as first choice, while national team coach Luciano Spalletti ranked him second, behind Manchester City’s Pep Guardiola.

The Best FIFA Women’s Coach

Winner: Emma Hayes (23 points) Second: Jonatan Giraldez (20 points) Third: Arthur Elias (13 points)

Hayes came out on top against her fellow podium finishers in part by gathering the most points from the votes of the international captains, coaches and media from around the world. USA skipper Lindsay Horan voted for Hayes, as did England captain Leah Williamson and coach Sarina Wiegman, who had claimed the honour herself in three of the past four years.
