The Brazilian footballer will go down in history after picking up this coveted award.

The 2019 Yachine Trophy, the first of its kind, was handed to one of Liverpool's key players in their quest to reach the 2019 UEFA Champions League title: Alisson Becker.

The Brazilian goalkeeper had one of the most successful years in his career, especially after being key for Liverpool's UCL title and a subsequent Copa América win with Brazil later in the summer.

Manchester City's Ederson Moraes (Alisson's sub with Brazil) and Barcelona's Marc-André Ter Stegen were the runners-up in the race to win the award, which is set to define greatness among goalkeepers from here on in.
