The Yellows goalkeeper kept a clean sheet against Atlético for the fifth time this season

Andrés Fernández shone between the posts once again. The Villarreal goalkeeper put in an excellent performance in the 0-1 victory over Atlético Madrid and kept a clean sheet for the fifth time this season (four in the LaLiga Santander and one in the UEFA Europa League). Andrés was like a ‘brick wall’ for the Atlético forwards, making some spectacular saves from shots by Griezmann, Correa, Gaitán, Saúl… Villarreal are still the second team to have conceded the fewest goals in the LaLiga Santander this season (27), just behind Atlético Madrid (25). 

The keeper could not hide how satisfied he was: “I always try to help the team and I’m really satisfied, above all for this team win. The defence helped me a lot and concentration was also very important. I’ll take the three points”.
