Seychelles Keeper Becomes Internet Star

Dave Mussard


Dave Mussard who is a chubby goalkeeper has become an internet sensation following his physical size which is rare. Nigeria ran out comprehensive 3-0 winners against the Seychelles on Saturday – but it was an opposition player who caught the most attention, according to The Sun.
 Seychelles goalkeeper, Dave Mussard, is not your average international goalkeeper. The 31-year-old is a pastry chef by day with Hotel Patatran on La Digue Island.
Such is his dedication to his job, he takes 15 minute boat rides to work after training sessions. However, Mussard, became a social media hit on Saturday for one reason only – the fact he’s bigger than most footballers.
 Mussard’s robust and bulky physique was immediately picked up on social media, with images of the heavy keeper circulating.
 Ultimately, his physique became the main point of interest for many watching the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualification clash. One social media cheekily compared Mussard to Brazil legend Ronaldo, while many Nigerian supporters weighed in with their opinions on the former.
 It’s safe to say the general consensus from the Super Eagles fans on Twitter was one which was relieved they didn’t have Mussard in goal.
 Some even likened him to a bank manager, as well as a professor. Seychelles, who are bottom of Group E, take on South Africa next on Thursday – with Mussard set to feature once more.
