David Raya made an unbelievable double save from a penalty as Arsenal drew at Italian side Atalanta in their Champions League opener.
The Spaniard got down low to his right to keep out Mateo Retegui’s spot-kick and somehow got across his goal to scoop the striker’s follow-up header off the line.
That was the one real moment of drama and quality in an otherwise forgettable match in Bergamo.
Chances were at a premium, with Raya not needing to pull off any other saves outside of that two-second spell.
Arsenal, meanwhile, did not have a single shot between the 18th and 75th minute.
Like Europa League winners Atalanta, the Gunners’ only two shots on target came as part of a double save.
Marco Carnesecchi tipped away Bukayo Saka’s free-kick and blocked Thomas Partey’s follow-up.
