Strikers get all the glory. They score the goals, after all.
The equivalent for a defender are those interventions that commentators love to tell us are ‘as good as scoring a goal’ (Football Cliches, page 3.)
Sky Sports have compiled a bunch of the best goal-saving tackles from the 2019-20 season (so far). Keep an eye out for Eric Dier and Super Jan.
But where is Japhet Tanganga? The boy wonder made a goal-saving clearance 90 seconds into his Premier League debut against Liverpool!
In-fact, Japhet could have a montage all of his own. Perhaps Sky are working on it as we speak.
Watch our man work his magic here!
Get him tied down to a new contract ASAP.⭐️ In the making.
