European football: Girona keeper’s penalty saves earn win, Juventus held
Paulo Gazzaniga stops two penalties in win over AthleticJuve concede first Serie A goal of season in Cagliari draw
The Girona goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga saved two penalties, including one that had to be retaken, before his teammate Cristhian Stuani scored from the spot deep in stoppage time as they beat visitors Athletic Bilbao 2-1 in La Liga on Sunday.
Álex Berenguer’s penalty was saved in the first half and Athletic’s luck from the spot got worse after the break as Iñaki Williams’s effort was also stopped. It had to be retaken because Gazzaniga’s feet were off the line. Ander Herrera stepped up for that but his effort was also saved by the former Fulham and Tottenham keeper.
