The first save was great and the second was even better. David Raya came to Arsenal’s rescue in the Champions League with a double save from a penalty that was celebrated by his teammates as wildly as a goal being scored.

David Raya made a stunning double save to keep out a second-half penalty as Arsenal held Atalanta to a 0-0 draw to begin their Champions League campaign in Italy. Raya saved Mateo Retegui ’s spot-kick down low to his right and then managed to scramble across the goal-line and keep out the Atalanta forward’s header from close range.

A good goalkeeper cannot win you a match but he can certainly prevent you from losing it, as David Raya did for Arsenal here. In a footballing storm conjured by an endlessly awkward Atalanta side, Arsenal’s point was Raya’s point.
