Spanish goalkeeper David De Gea bravely saved a penalty from 12 yards against AC Milan, and he said it was a reward for everyone's efforts. With two penalty saves in this game, De Gea became the first goalkeeper in Serie A to save two penalties in a single game in the past nine seasons, after Lazio goalkeeper Marchetti.


In the Serie A on Sunday, Fiorentina beat AC Milan 2-1, and David De Gea played an important role in saving two goals from 12 yards. However, the former Spanish international goalkeeper was modest after the game: "It's incredible. We have worked hard in the past few months, and I prefer to say that rather than the 12 yards we saved."


The 12 yards obtained by AC Milan were handled by two players, Fio Buts Landis and Abam, but neither of them slipped through De Gea's fingers.


"Tonight's victory is very important against a big club like AC Milan. We worked really hard and finally started to get rewards. "He repeatedly reiterated that this victory was a collective achievement. The Fiorentina had been unbeaten in 4 games in all competitions. After this game, they had 10 points in 7 games and climbed to 11th place in the Serie A standings.


De Gea made his debut in La Liga Atletico Madrid and later moved to the Premier League Manchester United. He played 545 games for Manchester United, kept 190 clean sheets, and won the Premier League, Europa League, Community Shield, League Cup and other honors with Manchester United. After his contract with Manchester United expired last summer, De Gea chose to become a free agent. After a year of unemployment, the 34-year-old former Spanish goalkeeper chose to come back and join the Fiorentina this summer. De Gea still maintains a good competitive state. He saved 2 penalties and 7 saves in this game. While being selected as the best player of the game, he gave AC Milan two consecutive defeats.


Florence is never short of great works.
