Barcelona lost 1-2 away against Real. In this match, the Catalans’ goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny drew attention by saving a penalty taken by Kylian Mbappe.
Thus, Szczesny remains the only goalkeeper to have saved penalties from Messi, Mbappe, and Neymar. "A good list, but right now I don’t think much about it.
Maybe when I am older, I will properly appreciate the value of this achievement," Szczesny said in a video published on Barcelona's YouTube channel. Szczesny also admitted that he deeply analyzes penalty takers of opposing teams before matches.
"I study my opponents a lot. I analyze their last 20 penalty kicks—where they shoot, how fast, how confident they are.
Before El Clasico, I studied Mbappe. I jumped to the same place where he shot the last time," Szczesny explained.
Barcelona's upcoming match will be against Elche on November 2.
