Defenses give titles!!!

It is now the rule. The attack brings people to the stadiums, but the defense brings titles. Remko Pasveer is Ajax`s Goalkeeper with very best performance in Europa

Remko Pasveer Ajax`s goalkeeper

It is now the rule. The attack brings people to the stadiums, but the defense brings titles. In fact, things get even better when the defense is led by a great goalkeeper, who, at the same time, has the ability to make impressive interventions and keep his home intact.


The spotlight almost always falls on those who score many goals or make elaborate actions: Robert Lewandowski, Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kyllian Mbappe, etc. The attack, however, starts with the defense and, even more, with the goalkeeper.


In the ten (10) most important European championships, few are those who manage to stand out. Keeping their hearth (clean sheet) inviolable is an even greater "mark". Ajax Remko Pasvir is the one who looks the most invincible.


In 13 games he has played in the Eredivisie (there have been a total of 16 matches), the 38-year-old has conceded goals in just two of them - a total of three (3). Which means that his home is violated every 390 minutes of play, ie every 6.5 hours!


The percentage of Antonio Adan, who defends the home of Sporting Lisbon, is equally high. The 34-year-old Spanish goalkeeper has kept the "zero" in nine (9) of the 14 matches with the Portuguese champions, conceding one goal every 252 minutes - a total of five (5).


The 10 goalkeepers who play in the top 10 European leagues and have conceded the fewest goals are.

Arsenal failed to maintain the euphoric atmosphere that existed after the imposing 3-0 win over Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. Their tank was almost... empty, stuck at 1-1 against Brentford, and now Mikel Arteta's team seems to be raising the white flag in the championship battle!.  Now Arsenal is turning its attention exclusively to the Champions League, where after the 3-0 win, it seems to have a big lead to qualify for the semi-finals of the top club competition in Europe, if not the world.
