Shot stopper Enyeama maintains good form

The 31-year old Nigerian shot stopper who last conceded in the league on September 15 was in imperious form yet again as he helped his side claim all three points that consolidated their place in the upper rungs of the table.
The former Enyimba goalkeeper was called to duty three times by Tolouse’s attackers and came out with top marks to help his side to an important win that means Lille continue to stay in second place, with 30 points from 14 matches.
Enyeama’s good run also means he now needs to keep two more clean sheets in the league to claim the record of going the longest number
of minutes without conceding in the French top flight.
PSG’s Italian goalkeeper, Salvatore Sirigu currently holds the record having gone 948 minutes without conceding in Ligue 1 between
November 17, 2012 and February 8, 2013.
Enyeama has now gone 855 minutes without conceding. The biggest threat to him breaking that record is expected to come at the Grand Stade Lille Métropole (Villeneuve d'Ascq) on December 3 when Lille hosts Olympic Marseille
on match day 16.
Remarkably, Enyeama does not need to go the entire 90 minutes against Olympic Marseille without conceding to break the record. If he
does not concede inside the first four minutes of the encounter against the country’s best supported club, he will go into the history books for all the right reasons.
The Super Eagles stand in keeper however told supersport.com recently that he is not thinking about the record.
“I don’t keep statistics. I am surprised you just read out the facts for me. Honestly, I wasn’t even aware because I just go out to play football,” he said.
Enyeama made his debut for Nigeria in 2002 and has since gone on to make appearances for the Super Eagles.
