Aaron Ramsdale rescued Arsenal with two ridiculous late saves in their Premier League clash vs Liverpool on Sunday afternoon.
The Gunners started brightly at Anfield and found themselves 2-0 up after the opening half-an-hour thanks to goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus.

Liverpool battled back though and goals from Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino meant the game was level going into the final few minutes.
Ramsdale persevered a point for the London side with two crazy saves in the dying moments.
Salah’s deflected effort looked destined for the top corner but he was thwarted by Ramsdale, who somehow managed to keep the ball out.

Liverpool had another golden opportunity to snatch all three points shortly after.
Darwin Nunez headed the ball across goal to an unmarked Ibrahima Konate at the back post.
It looked almost certain that Konate would tap the ball home and give Liverpool a dramatic victory.
But Ramsdale came to Arsenal’s rescue as he flew across goal to stop the Frenchman’s effort on the goal line.

Just incredible by Ramsdale.
He was given the Player of the Match award for his performance and rightly so. He was outstanding.
Those saves could be so, so important come the end of the season as Arsenal look to win their first Premier League title since 2004.
