Is Sergey Hernandez the best goalkeeper in the world right now? It’s hard to argue otherwise. The Spaniard delivered 15 saves against Barça in Barcelona – including a last-second penalty stop to clinch a historic 22–21 victory.
Emil Nielsen was excellent in the Barça goal as well, making 13 saves in a strong performance. Normally, when Barcelona concede only 22 goals at home, they win. But not this time.
Magdeburg’s defense stood tall throughout, and Hernandez was the difference-maker. His dramatic last-second save sealed Magdeburg’s first-ever win in Barcelona.
