Having started his career stage poorly at the "Fiorentina" club, goalkeeper David De Gea has shown that he should not yet be written off.

Last weekend, the Spaniard shone in the "Serie A" championship match against "Milan," saving two penalty kicks and helping his team achieve a 2:1 victory.

After this memorable achievement, it was noted that D. De Gea demonstrated a feat rarely seen in the league. The last time a goalkeeper saved two penalty kicks in a "Serie A" match was quite a long time ago—nine years ago.

David De Gea was absolutely useless at saving penalties at Manchester United.
