🧤 The goalkeepers making a real difference for their teams | OneFootball

A group of goalkeepers is clearly making a difference for their teams during the Apertura 2025.

Carlos Acevedo, Keylor Navas, Guillermo Allison, and Óscar García are the best shot-stoppers so far in the tournament. 

According to Statiskicks, these goalkeepers not only face many highly dangerous shots, but they consistently stop them, saving goals that statistics considered almost certain. In other words: goalkeepers who truly make a difference with their saves.

On the other end, we find Kevin Mier, for whom the data shows he faces relatively few high-probability shots, yet his number of prevented goals is negative. That is, he is saving less than what would be expected of him.

Where does your team’s goalkeeper stand? Are his saves key to preventing goals?
