The Yashin Award for the Best Goalkeeper is named in honor of the late goalkeeper Lev Yashin (USSR). The FIFA Technical Study Group recognizes the top goalkeeper of the tournament based on the player’s performance throughout the final competition. Although goalkeepers have this specific award for their position, they are still eligible for the Golden Ball as well, as when Oliver Kahn was awarded in २००२. Although the Yashin was first awarded in १९९४, every All-Star Team in World Cups prior to १९९८ included only one goalkeeper:
