AFCON 2025 highlights South African forward Lyle Foster as the most decisive player so far, with involvement in four of South Africa’s five goals in the tournament, scoring twice and delivering two assists.
With this impact, he matches the benchmark previously set by Nigeria’s Ademola Lookman, who also posted two goals and two assists.
As AFCON 2025 continues, the race among decisive players intensifies. Riyad Mahrez currently leads the scoring charts, while another striking statistic stands out: three own goals have already been recorded, the same number as Mahrez’s goals. After this third matchday, the hierarchy of the tournament’s most influential players promises to become even more compelling.

I feel Forster is wasteful. Statistics proves Makgopa is way better than him in linking up play.
