My Take
Cheick Diabaté is exactly the kind of striker I enjoy watching: a 194 cm target man out of Bamako who carried Mali's hopes from 2005 to 2016. There is something thrilling about a forward who simply owns the air in the box, turning every cross into a threat and every defender into a nervous afterthought. A decade in the national team is a long shift, and it tells me he was dependable as much as imposing. I have a soft spot for players whose physical gift is visible from the first touch, and Diabaté's height made him one of those.
