Malians, the kings of dribbling at the U17 World Cup

The U17 World Cup wasn't a resounding success for African teams, none of whom made it past the quarterfinals.
A rather average showing for the continent's representatives, who nonetheless had the potential to chase a historic double after Morocco's previous U17 World Cup triumph.
That being said, several young stars made a name for themselves in this tournament, most notably Mali's Seydou Dembele, who completed 14 successful dribbles.
Here is the Top 10 of the best African dribblers at the U17 World Cup:
Seydou Dembele (Mali): 14 successful dribbles
Lamine Keita (Mali): 12 successful dribbles
Ismail El Aoud (Morocco): 12 successful dribbles
Ibrahim Diakite (Mali): 11 successful dribbles
Alassana Bagayogo (Burkina Faso): 10 successful dribbles
Emile Witbooi (South Africa): 10 successful dribbles
Victor Mendy (Senegal U17): 9 successful dribbles
Arafat Nkoola (Uganda U17): 9 successful dribbles
Isima Magala (Uganda U17): 9 successful dribbles
