Both good fun, but the Higuita save was in a friendly, wasn't it?? I don't think he would have risked it in a competitive match. As for Coupet, if he'd pushed it over the bar instead of heading it he wouldn't have had to make the (admittedly) awesome second save...

Don't know when it was but it looked like a backpass to me so he couldn't use his hands. Any way Jimmy Montgomery 73 cup final is the best ever

Good point, but for a referee (at least in this country) to consider it a backpass it would have to be MUCH easier for a goalkeeper to gather than that.

You clearly don't recall his antics in the World Cup vis-a-vis Roger Milla et all...Clown springs to mind!

schmiechel penalty v gooners FA cup semi '99.

meant so much. iirc bergkamp never took another penalty following that miss.

Big Peter also made two other world class saves that match before giggsy delivered. smile
So you're _honestly_ saying the best save _Ever_ in the history of world football is a penalty save? confused
