Jordan Pickford could be DENIED the World Cup's Golden Glove despite sitting joint-top of the clean-sheet charts with FIFA using an expert panel led by Arsene Wenger to decide the tournament's best shot-stopper

England and Everton shot-stopper Jordan Pickford could finish as the joint-top goalkeeper for keeping the most clean-sheets at the Qatar World Cup, but don't think that this will see him lift the fabled Golden Glove award for his exploits.

Pickford returned to his typical career-best form with the Three Lions, conceding in just two out of five games on the team's way to a quarter-final exit against eventual World Cup finalists France.

But the award isn't handed out to the goalkeeper who keeps the most clean-sheets, as is the case with the Premier League's top shot-stopper award, instead it is decided between a panel of judges as to who they think has been the best performer between the sticks.
